CVC RIDE PREVIEW April 4-April 9
Absolutely no joke, we gotta stop! Stop signs and stop lights mean we all have to stop. Police and Sheriffs are on a ticketing bender and cyclists are in their crosshairs. You don't necessarily have to drop a foot, but you must come to a momentary pause. This means the front of groups will have to soft pedal until everyone has come through. Sorry, but it's the law....and an expensive ticket.

All rides not asterisked are considered a "drop ride" so please understand the route before you start (and how to get back). If you get to a regrouping spot and no one is there, consider yourself dropped. As always we will try to stick together & have a fun safe ride. We will regroup regularly to allow everyone a chance to ride together.
If for any reason you leave a group ride, please pass along the information to the ride leader.
It is mandatory to have & wear a helmet. It is the rider's responsibility to ensure that the helmet is in good condition (check expiration on helmet inner tag) and that your bike is in working condition as well.
That’s all for now, folks. Have a great week!
