About the Ride
|
As cyclists, our reasons for riding are many: beautiful scenery, managing stress, setting and achieving goals, staying fit, socializing, etc. By participating in the annual CVC Picnic Ride & Benefit, we ride with an additional goal: Giving back in support of the local community, open space and the sport we all love.
In the past, we have donated to local causes such as: -Mike Nosco Foundation -Conejo Open Space Foundation -Santa Monica Mountain Foundation -Sapwi Bike Park -Boy Scouts -James Storehouse -Bicycle Angels -League of American Cyclists -Streets are for Everyone This year CVC will continue its support of last year's donation recipients:
A $75 minimum registration/donation allows us cover expenses for the ride and still be able to donate to the three organizations listed above. You must register in advance, registration will close 4 days prior to the event. You may purchase extra lunches for family and significant others on the registration page ($16). No extra lunch tickets will be sold on the day of the event. The Grand Fondo begins at 7:30, the Medio Fondo begins at 8:30 and the Petite Fondo begins at 9:30. (If you want to start earlier, that is fine, but lunch will be starting around noon. Your registration/donation includes routes for all ride distances supported regroup fully stocked stops and SAG support. The post-ride celebration will continue at the start location and will include lunch from a tasty lunch, music, a silent auction, and more! Remember…This is your ride, your day and your event.
