By Debbie Bulloch




This is exciting news for local bike riders...

The Conejo Valley will host the final leg of the eight-stage Amgen Tour of California bicycle race in May 2010, race officials announced today.

The cities of Thousand Oaks, Westlake Village and Agoura Hills were tapped to be among 16 host cities for the professional cycling road race that will take place over the course of eight days from May 16 to May 23, 2010.

The decision marks the first time since the inaugural tour in 2006 that Thousand Oaks has played host for the race, which has attracted top-name cyclists including Lance Armstrong, three-time race winner Levi Leipheimer and David Zabriskie, who placed second last year. They are expected to participate in next year’s race.
