Just a guy who likes to ride his bike, and sometimes enter the “pain cave”. I have a personality defect in that I do not remember names. Don’t take it personally. Yes I have met you. Yes I know you, I just don’t remember your name. I like to joke around and have a good time. I’m a little dry and very sarcastic. I have been known at times to offend people. If I offend you, please know I did not mean to. If you have any suggestions or requests, please let me know. I will always listen. I do believe there are stupid questions; but I have been known to be stupid myself, so ask it anyway.

Wednesday Afternoon Rides Begin 3:45 PITFIRE
by Sheri Leiken 23 Sep '18

23 Sep '18

It's time again for the Wednesday afternoon rides! My goal is that every Wednesday afternoon we meet at the landing for an afternoon ride similar to the pub ride without the pub, (though not saying that can't happen!) These rides will range from 18-22 miles and are a good option for a weekday afternoon spin for those of us who can't get out in the morning. Let's start this week with a ride through North Ranch, ( to Lakeview, up westlake, down Kanan and return on Agoura Rd.) We will discuss specifics then. *We will leave at 3:45 this week and we will leave from PITFIRE PIZZA in Westlake. (Gelson's area) . * Let's try that this time and see how it goes. -- Sheri

**ride leader planning date
by Sheri Leiken 17 Sep '18

17 Sep '18

It's me again! Taylor has said that he is available to meet and have a ride meeting on the 29th of Sept. instead of the 24th on a Monday evening if that is a better time. It would be a Saturday afternoon after the ride. We would plan a 1:00 or 1:30 pm meet time. Does that work better? We want to try and get as many people there that we can. Please send me your feedback before we commit. Once I get feedback, I will let you know. This is for all current and future and sub ride leaders. We want to keep this to an hour. -- Sheri
