CVC RIDE PREVIEW
October 4-October 9
Saddle Saturdays!
The bike seat co-op is growing. We have some used saddles in great shape if you're looking for something that may be more comfortable for you. Or use as a loaner to find a model you like, and then buy new. Lots of options!
If you are like me, and have a few saddles that didn't work and are stuck with, bring them in and see if we can't find a good home for them.
-UPCOMING EVENT-
CVC Away Ride, Saturday, Oct. 10
-It's the annual Buelton Ride for Red and Orange
-We will also have a Local Away Ride starting in Camarillo with routes for all levels.
-THE RIDES-
We ride as a group, not a mob. Cyclists must ride either single file or two by two. When coming to a stop light, cyclists must stay in the same order they were riding in before the stop, not milling around in the cross walk.
Red
Leader: Jerry Scott
Orange
Leader: Jim Doane
Gold-We have started a new sub-level of Gold, same route, same regrouping stops, but with a faster pace. This is a great stepping stone for those who are interested in going Orange. If for any reason a cyclist cannot stay with this group, don't worry about being totally dropped, the Gold Standard group won't be far behind!
-Gold Standard: 12-14 mph average pace
Leader: Mike Hackett
-Gold Rush: 13-14+ mph average pace
Leader: Cam Young
Purple**-Leader: Bill Sietsema

** This is considered a "no drop" ride. The ride leader will keep an eye on everyone. No one is left behind.
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!
