We’re expanding the 5-6 p.m. Happy Hour with a hosted bar to include fresh, hand-made, oven-baked pizzas. A great buffet just like 2016, plus race team and ride leader recognition + racing awards + Cyclist of the Year, Teammate of the Year, and Ride Leader of the Year recognitions. And an amazing raffle - if you have a prize to donate let us know.

A Note From The Bike Coalition Liaison |
PENDLETON ACCESS REGISTRATION
It's a new year so if you plan to ride on the base, it's time to renew: http://www.pendleton.marines.mil/About/Base-Information/Base-Access/
PENDLETON: RIDE SINGLE-FILE OR ALL CYCLISTS MAY LOSE ACCESS
Camp Pendleton has asked Caltrans District 11 to remind all local bicycling organizations about the single-file rule on base. They say that if side-by-side riding continues, "cyclists may be pushed back onto I-5".
I responded that their signs at base entrances explaining the rules explicitly allow two-abreast riding, and Udo Heinz was riding single file at the road edge with his buddies when they were hit by a bus and Udo was killed. No reply to that, but in the mean time I wouldn't push anything there. It's their base and they can ban all cyclists for any reason, justified or not, so let's not give them one.

Bottega Americano Gold Cards |
Get 50% Off
Your Total Bill at Bottega Americano
As an SDBC member you already get 10% off your bill every time you dine at the incredible Bottega Americano - just tell them you’re an SDBC member. The restaurant is where we held last year's Club banquet, and is known for its creative, fresh Italian-inspired cuisine. It also features a full service bar and great wines.
But there’s a way you can get 50% off every time. Owner and fellow cyclist Giuseppe Ciuffa has given the Club “Gold Cards.” Present the card and save 50% off your entire bill when you and a second person use the card. Save 25% off your bill with a group of three or four people. These discounts apply to everything: all menu items, your wine and bar charges, and corkage fees, if you bring your own wine. These cards do not have expiration dates on them.
We have five cards, and we’ve put a $95 value on each one. If you’re interested in buying one, please contact Marilyn Detloff at membership@sdbc.org. She can process your credit card information and mail the card to you, or make arrangements for pick-up at the Saturday ride.
First-come, first-served. When they’re gone, they’re gone.
Why are we selling the cards, you ask? The cards are Club assets, for the benefit of all members. We could give them away, but to members who don’t like Italian food or live far from the restaurant, the card has no value, no benefit. So if we gave them as raffle prizes, the winners might be people who have no use for them. But if we sell them, the funds can be used to support SDBC and its programs, benefitting all members, while getting the cards into the hands of people who value them |
