| SDBC Club Night at UC Cyclery |
  |
SAVE THE DATE! MONDAY MARCH 16, 2015
UC Cyclery will offer its biggest SDBC Discounts on "Club Night" Monday, March 16th between 6 and 8 PM.
We always have fun when Dave and his crew roll out the red carpet for SDBC! The club provides the beer and pizza, and Dave offers great discounts and in-store specials. If you have not renewed your membership – you will be able to on site!
Show your 2015 SDBC Membership Card on UC Cyclery Club Night and get these discounts:
- 20% off on parts and accessories (normally it's 10%)
- 10% off on bikes and Garmin products.
2015 SDBC membership card required for discounts.
Normally, Garmin products are excluded from discounting, and there is a $100 limit on bike discounts. All that changes on Club Night. Garmin is in, and the $100 limit is gone. So if you buy a $3,000 bike on Club Night you get a $300 discount.
Club Night discounts are the deepest ones offered all year by UCC to SDBC members. Don't miss out!

| A Note From The Bike Coalition Liaison |
Remember, SDBC membership includes membership in the San Diego County Bike Coalition which includes a number of benefits. See the new coalition website at http://sdbikecoalition.org.
Safety tip of the week: When riding in the front of the group think like you're driving an 18-wheeler. When adjusting left for a hazard like a pot hole, a parked car or to pass other cyclists, do it MUCH EARLIER than you would if riding solo; allow for the domino delayed reaction time behind you. After passing, delay moving back to the right side until the rear of the pack or paceline group has passed the hazard. It will feel unnatural to leave all that space on your right, but if you move into it before the rear can move right you're unnecessarily exposing someone behind to the wind, and drawing them to the right and close to the hazard too early.

| 2015 Free Bicycle Traffic Skills Course |
Are you a "D" rider? An "A" rider? Or between the two? This free course should be taken by everyone who rides a bike on public streets. Everyone! This course could save your life.
My wife Beth and I have been riding and racing with SDBC for 21 years and took this course a few months ago. We feel safer riding on the road and learned the most current rules of the road. This course is well worth a few hours of your time.
Taught by our local cycling hero Pete Penseyres (former record holder of RAAM) and the Oceanside bicycle coordinator Howard LaGrange.
