CVC Sunday G.O. Ride -- Sunday, July 21, 2013 9:00 am Meeting at Citibank Parking Lot - Westlake Village -- Westlake Blvd. & Agoura Road (North East Corner) Hi CVC club members and guests, Come out and join us for a social paced recovery ride (14 Mph Average Speed/Pace). 25-38 miles max. and stay a while to socialize afterwards by having an after-ride beverage and snack. We haven't ridden this in a while so lets try it this Sunday. This week we will go Norwegian Grade style with a Read Road Bypass return. Climbing Erbs to Arboles and up Westlake Blvd. Possible extensions thru North Ranch, Oak Park and Old Agoura. See you there! Dale Even though we are attempting to offer our coolest ride routes during high heat days, some considerations and situations that you should be aware of for riding in high heat in our area: 1) Stay hydrated and be aware to keep your electrolytes balanced 2) Road surface conditions: asphalt tar & repair drips become semi liquid and especially slippery example: descending Decker/Westlake has multiple places where asphalt cracks
