"Some have quite rightly asked: Is it really worth $225 million not to have to wait another 18 months? The answer is absolutely not. It’s grotesque. What the government should have done was simply cancel the existing MFA with The Beer Store via legislation, on the grounds it was a product of rank political corruption. (In fact it said it would do this, but legislation to that effect was never enacted.)"

Thousand Oaks Acorn: Prizes, maps, workshops and training highlight Bicycle Month
"The Ventura County Transportation Commission and the nonprofit Bike Ventura County organization use prizes, maps and training to accomplish these goals.
The commission’s new guide, “Biking Ventura County: Routes & Tips for Beginners & Families,” makes it easy to find a place to ride. It highlights shared-use paths and separated bike lanes across the county and provides guidance on safety, e-bikes and tips for taking bicycles aboard public transit. "
"A Brew Ride takes place on the second Sunday of each month from 1 to 4:30 p.m., starting at 490 N. Ventura Ave. This social ride celebrates Ventura’s award-winning breweries, but safety is paramount.
“There’s no excessive drinking and riding,” Abele said. “Riders enjoy tastings and . . . chat with local brewers.”
The casual ride starts after lunch, and participants will have just enough time for one drink at each of two brewery visits. “Remember, on the road, cyclists are vehicles subject to all traffic laws, including those against drunk driving,” Abele said. "
