SDBC Weekly Update

 

Amazon Smile

3x your impact! Amazon is tripling the donation rate on your first smile.amazon.com purchase - through March 31! Go to smile.amazon.com/ch/33-0640963 and Amazon donates to San Diego Bicycle Club Inc.

Do you shop at Amazon.com? If so, it’s easy for you to help SDBC receive donations from Amazon to SDBC. Just use the “Amazon Smile” charitable process in your account. Amazon Smile funnels a small percentage of their eligible purchase revenue to SDBC if you activate Amazon Smile in your account and choose “San Diego Bicycle Club” as the beneficiary nonprofit.

Instead of logging in through "amazon.com” you log-in through “smile.amazon.com.”  Very easy to use. It is EXACTLY the same shopping experience.  Nothing changes except SDBC receives contributions from Amazon.

  Have you Moved in the last year?

  membership@sdbc.org

  Thank you.

2018 SDBC Sponsors

We have several new sponsors this year - Mission Federal Credit Union is our official sponsor of the SDBC Bike Safety Rodeo & helmet giveaway program, Liquid Solana Beach, our Saturday ride coffeee stop (AKA Solana Beach Coffee Company), and ROKA a perfomance design company that designs and sells performance eyewear, apparel & equipment.

Emerald Textiles will continue as our title sponsor, UC Cyclery is continuing as our official bike club and sponsor of the men's and women's Cat 1/2 teams, and all of our sponsors that supported us last year will continue to support us this year.

Please support our sponsors. Without them SDBC would not be able to maintain the racing teams and other activities that we have all enjoyed. Visit the sponsors page on the SDBC web site to view more information about each of our sponsors or click the logos to go the specific sponsor's web site.

Interested in advertising with us? Please email our Sponsorship Director for details.

The ROKA Team Store is offering special San Diego Bike Club pricing during their 5-Year Anniversary Sale! Through March 31!

  • An extra 10% off sunglasses (i.e., 40% off compared to your normal 30%)
  • An extra 5% off everything else* (i.e., 35% off compared to 30%)

San Diego Bicycle Club athletes will receive these special discounts and offers simply by logging in to their roka.com accounts.

To take advantage, athletes will need to register as team members at roka.com if they haven’t already. The steps to do this are listed below:

  1. Create an account at ROKA.com. (Or log in to an existing account if you already have one.)
  2. Inside your account, click "ACTIVATE ROKA TEAM ACCOUNT." (If you don't see this button, it means they're already registered and don't need to do anything else!)
  3. Enter your "team handle" and "team passcode", and submit. The handle and passcode for San Diego Bicycle Club are listed below.
       Team handle: SDBC (not case sensitive)
       Team passcode: 3717
  4. You'll see a confirmation message showing that you're registered. Now you're done – go get what you need to ‘find faster’ this year!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Once you activate, your team prices will only show up once you begin checkout. We know this could be a little confusing and will work on improving it, but for now, rest assured that you'll get your special pricing – just not until checkout.

We're eager to help with any questions, so just email teams@roka.com or call +1 (877) 985-7652 any time Mon-Fri 8am-8pm CST and let us know you're with San Diego Bicycle Club.

A Note From The Bike Coalition Liaison

San Diego Bicycle ClubSDCBC Logo

Safety tip of the week - don't get hit!

Bike-car crashes fall into two main categories:

  1. Cyclist primarily at fault.
  2. Motorist primarily at fault.

Different studies vary on how the distribution falls out, but it's probably around 50/50, and doesn't really matter.

As cyclists we have to still do these two things:

  1. Don't do things that make you at fault.
  2. Ride defensively so you don't get hit even when it's the motorist's fault.

Examples:

  1. DON'T BE AT FAULT: Obey traffic controls, use lights at night, ride on the right half of road (don't salmon), don't move laterally without looking back first, don't swerve when you look back, negotiate for right of way and wait for yielding before moving laterally, use through lanes (not right turn lanes) for going straight, etc.
  2. BE DEFENSIVE: Use conspicuous attention-grabbing predictable lane positioning, use release position in bike lane or at road edge only when necessary and safe, avoid door zones, look for red light or stop sign runners before entering intersection, adjust speed/timing to avoid left cross threat, don't pass vehicles on the right even if you're in a bike lane (slow down if someone ahead slows down - don't pass on the right!), don't let the paint think for you, use a mirror, etc.

Comments, questions or suggestions? Let me know.
