The powerplant in this is likely more reliable than that 12 cylinder boat anchor they pulled out.

I wussed out of the available group rides today and drove to the corner of the valley so I could ride in the less trafficy areas of Ventura County. I saw a lot of other riders and it was near perfect weather. I started from a place where a lot of riders start rides and I found myself warming up with a group of 5 other riders who were going the same direction as I was. They were friendly and invited me to ride with them. They seemed to be keeping a decent pace despite one of them being on a full suspension mountain bike, another with a huge backpack and elbow pads, and another on a bike he had added an electric motor to which he said had "changed his life".
I try to never underestimate anyone and there was a pro mtb racer who used to come on our short Sunday club rides with his race bike so I know it can be done but once the first bigger hill came they vanished. I kept thinking they would catch back up but I didn't see them again. I did see a friend who took some pictures of a nice valley.
Lake Sherwood is out there with the country club and golf course where the PGA has an event. People who live out there have serious money.
It's a beautiful valley.

Not too small. Mostly South of the C&D canal -- more rural. And pretty flat.

I remember that patch. Does it still start from the Gore place? The first year they started there the driving directions routed you under that really low railroad bridge. There was a news story about it the other night. So many bridge strikes. I nearly destroyed my IF the first time I went to the ride. The day after the ex emailed the club and they changed the driving directions. IIRC, the signed clearance is 8’ 6”. I later measured my bike on the roof of the Mazda. 8’ 4”.
