CVC Ride Preview CORRECTION!!!!
by Cameron Young 28 Jun '14

28 Jun '14

Yup, yours truly does it again! The date for the Coastal Coffee Ride mentioned in this week's Preview is incorrect. The correct date is July 12, NOT July 19. I apologize for the confusion. FYI, all club away rides are on the second Saturday of the month. I've been in touch with the owner of the Sandbox Cafe in Ventura, where we'll be stopping, and they are very cyclist friendly, so I hope you all can make it. Thanks all! Cam Young Ride Director CVC

26 Jun '14

CVC RIDE PREVIEW June 28-July 3 -UPCOMING- Coastal Coffee Ride-Saturday, July 19 We're in the Tour de France mood and want to go a little more European, so we'll do a nice ride along the coast from Leo Carrillo to Ventura and stop for coffee and snacks on the way back. For you data driven souls, that'll add 15-20 extra minutes to the ride but, hey, c'est la vie! So clear your calendars and get those "honey do's" done so we can all enjoy another great day in the saddle. It's basically a Metric Century and virtually flat, so you can do as little or as much as you want. More details as the date approaches. -THE RIDES- Please familiarize yourselves with a posted route beforehand. The ride leaders can't be everywhere and we don't want anyone lost.

North Ranch #3: CVC GO Thursday Ride June 26 @ 5:30 p.m.
by Sherrie Felton 25 Jun '14

25 Jun '14

What: CVC GO Thursday Ride @ 5:30 p.m. When: Thursday June 26, 2014 Route: North Ranch #3 * DISTANCE: 23 miles. PACE: This is an intermediate level ride. The group includes mixed paces averaging 13 - 15+ mph. NO DROPS: The leader will sweep behind the group or wait ahead at strategic points/turns along the route, as needed, so nobody gets left behind. Faster riders who are familiar with the course and who prefer to ride ahead are encouraged to do so; they need not wait at regroup points. DIRECTIONS TO RIDE START: Triunfo Canyon Rd. in Westlake Village, just west of the dam, Westlake Tennis Club and Westlake Lake Management building. From the 101 Freeway, take Lindero Canyon south until it ends at Triunfo. Go right on Triunfo a couple hundred yards. You will see a grassy area. Park along the curb. * This 23 mile route is based on a previous North Ranch route that someone recently created for CVC, but with a couple of changes: 1) It starts from Triunfo; and 2) Rather than taking a LT at Fountainwood or Laro, this route takes a RT from Kanan onto Fountainwood and follows Fountainwood/Gray Rock up and around to a LT on Laro. Laro continues back down to Kanan where we can cross the intersection @ the green light rather than attempting to make a LT during rush hour. QUESTIONS: Email or call Sherrie at hatoolah(a)msn.com / 908.432.3480. SAFETY NOTES: 1. A helmet is mandatory. 2. I.D., water or sports drink, a snack, cell phone. 3. Have on your bike or person everything you need to change a flat: spare tube(s), CO2 cartridges or hand pump, patch kit. 4. Please do not call out “clear” at intersections and turns. 5. If you hear someone call out “clear” while approaching a turn or intersection, or anywhere else for that matter, please disregard it and make your own decision about the safety status of the turn or intersection. 6. If you start with the group but decide to cut the ride short or take a different route, please let me know. CVC Inclement Weather Policy: In the interest of safety, whenever it is either actively raining or the ride route has wet roads, it is our club policy to cancel a club ride. Club members may still choose to meet and ride in these conditions; however, the ride will not be considered an official club ride. Regards, Sherrie Felton
