Do you shop at Amazon.com? If so, it' 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. |

Members Step Forward to Fill Board Positions
Many thanks to those who contacted me about Board positions. The Executive Committee is now working on selecting candidates to present to the Board of Directors at its September 1st (first Tuesday of the month) meeting. The Board will vote to appoint these members to fill vacant positions through the December elections. Volunteering and helping out is one of the hallmarks of our Club.
SDBC Family Helping Each Other
SDBC is a big club: No one knows everyone, BUT everyone knows someone. Lee Driver once said to me when I first joined that you have to work really hard NOT to make friends in SDBC. He's right. We’re friends, and many view each other as family. Now some of those friends find themselves out of work. And we can help. Let’s connect in the Weekly Update with our newly created “SDBC Jobs Board”.
Need a Job?
If you need a job send details to the Weekly Update BEFORE noon Wednesday to be included in the Update blasted on Thursday. Keep it SHORT & SIMPLE - 25 words max. Be sure to include (a) your name and how people can contact you AND (b) a link to your resume or to LinkedIn / Facebook, etc. Send to "weekly@sdbc.org”.
Have a Job Opening?
Some out-of-work members might be a bit shy about disclosing that…so…if you have a job opening, please send details to the Weekly Update BEFORE noon Wednesday to be included in the Update blasted on Thursday. Keep it SHORT & SIMPLE - 25 words max. Be sure to include (a) how people can contact you AND (b) a link to the job description. Send to "weekly@sdbc.org”.
Please carefully review what you submit. We will review content only for appropriateness. Please no politics and no profanity. Misspellings and grammatical errors will NOT be corrected.
See you unofficially out on the road! Be sure to bring/wear a face covering.

A Note From the Training Director |

Saturday Ride Reminder |
|
Due to the ongoing pandemic, the Club's Saturday Rides remain suspended. We will restart the rides as quickly as possible once permitted.
We encourage you to ride your bikes either solo or in very small groups. Some riders have been using UCC as a starting point and riding our usual routes. If you do so, please do not linger and form groups of more than a few cyclists. If you wish to meet cycling friends there, please consider arriving before or after 8:30 to help reduce the number of riders leaving the parking lot at that time, or consider meeting in the vicinity. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Please stay healthy and safe so we can look forward to riding with you again in the future!
