Amazon Smile

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.

    San Diego Bicycle Club Winners of the SDBC February Strava Challenge

    In February, 72 cyclists linked to SDBC's Strava group completed the February Grand Fondo Challenge on Strava. From that group, three lucky SDBC members were selected randomly and will receive a gift card for Eppig Brewing. Our winners for January are:

    • Anne Kobayashi
    • David Milder
    • Sofia Schugar

    Note: There will not be a Strava Challenge in March. Please consider joining SDBC's efforts in supporting Padres Pedal the Cause.

    Saturday Rides Status

    The County of San Diego is still in the high risk "Purple Zone" and the health order dated 2/6/21 reflects that. Gatherings of members of more than three households are prohibited. Vaccines are being administered and some trends are looking better, but new variants of the virus are a cause for concern. To stay safe and remain in compliance, the SDBC Saturday Rides continue to be suspended. We encourage you to ride solo or with a friend (or two) for your physical and mental health while keeping in mind the County's guidelines.

    Please do not gather in large groups at UC Cyclery on Saturday mornings. If you choose to ride with a friend or two from there, please leave the parking area quickly and do not form or join large groups. Let's all stay healthy and safe while we ride this out. Be patient as there are better times ahead!

    STORE CLOSES* EST. DELIVERY
    March 8th April 27th
    * a new store will open immediately after the current store closes.

    Please note that the delivery interval for the February 22nd order is a bit longer due to the shutdown during the Chinese holiday.

    We still have a great supply of SDBC branded Zoca masks at UC Cyclery! They are $10/mask and, from all reports (and my own experience) these are the best mask for use while riding. We are in the process of also designing and ordering SDBC socks with the 75th year anniversary logo! Stay tuned for more....
