Announcing Ride of Silence-Wednesday May 18th
by Sheri L 05 May '23

05 May '23

Dear CVC, CVC along with the City of Thousand Oaks, and Pedago Bikes will be hosting the local Ride of Silence. Let's bring awareness to the drivers of the Conejo Valley, stressing the importance of motor vehicles being cautious and patient with cyclists. This is a NATION WIDE event. Please come show your support at our local level for cyclists all over the globe, for those you know who have had an accident and remembering and honoring the many hundreds of people we have lost in this world due to cars. Please show up and show your support as it is our mass numbers that will bring attention to the drivers on the road. I am attaching a video from a prior year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGpLtP0eavQ And here is a link to an Acorn Article about a prior ride. https://www.toacorn.com/articles/ride-of-silence-remembers-lost-cyclists/ Thank you for coming and riding slowly to show your support to all those hit and killed on the road.

Nosco Ride/ Ride info and volunteer positions
by Sheri L 29 Oct '22

29 Oct '22

Dear CVC, I would like to share information about the Michael P. Nosco Foundation, Inc. This foundation provides financial assistance to families and/or individuals who are confronting a life-threatening illness. The foundation is funded through a ride that CVC has always supported. The Nosco Ride is a ride that has continued to grow and be part of our community over the years. The ride supports our mission at CVC to promote cycling and community. This is a ride that often has 700+ people showing up to ride. Your support provides inspiration for other riders as well as those in financial need. For those of you who do not know, this ride is a tough 80 mile bicycle ride climbing Deer Creek, Mulholland, and Latigo and finishes at Dos Vientos park. You can make a difference in the lives of others. I encourage you to ride and make the minimum suggested donation of $100. Information, registration and updates are available at MikeNosco.com. For those of you who do not want to commit to the full ride, there are other options which are listed below. I hope many of you can join on November 3rd for the annual Mike Nosco Memorial Bicycle Ride. *If you cannot ride, but can donate some time, we have been asked to put out the word that the organization is looking for 4-6 people to run the Deer Creek aide station on Thursday the 3rd, from 9:00 am- 11:00 am**. *There are other volunteer positions as well, and all you need to do is go to the website, mikenosco.com and hit the volunteer tab. ROUTE OPTIONS - Full course- 82 miles, 9000ft. <https://www.strava.com/routes/326660> - Latigo Route- 63 miles, 5400ft. <https://www.strava.com/routes/301830> - Liv Route- 50 miles, 3800ft. <https://www.strava.com/routes/301819> The 2022 Mike Nosco Memorial Bicycle Ride on November 3rd is back to an in person event at the Dos Vientos Community Park! The ride is an optional donation, but REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. It includes a day full of exhausting riding, support from well-placed aid stations along the route(s), fun with fellow riders and supporters, and other activities throughout the day. Your registration helps the Michael P. Nosco Foundation, Inc. provide adequate planning for the preparation of the ride route, road support, aid stations, meals, drinks, swag (t-shirts, water bottles, etc.) and many of the other amenities provided throughout the day.
