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. | | | Membership Join SDBC or renew your membership online. Visit

Wanted: Sponsorship Director |
|
We have mighty big shoes to fill. Niven Howlett has been our incredibly successful sponsorship director since July 2018, signing up sponsors for 2019, 2020, & 2021. He didn’t seek reelection this year because of increasing work demands at his job.
In fact, the Club’s financial recovery and stabilization began with Michael Farkas, followed by Michael Yuhas, before Niven. Over the last eight years we’ve been very fortunate to have had three great leaders hold this position.
Are you the fourth?
Maybe. We’re looking for an outgoing person who likes talking to, and working with, people. Knowledge of the Club and its programs are a must along with sense of pride for SDBC and the broader cycling world in San Diego. We have a great story to tell and are looking for someone to tell it.
According to Niven, maybe the most important quality is lots of connections in the cycling community who are also connected to, and influential in, their businesses. Niven says it’s not enough to know a lot of business owners and marketing people. Nor is it enough to know a lot of cyclists. Rather, you need to know business owners and marketing people who are also cyclists, preferably riding with SDBC, or at least having knowledge about SDBC.
If that’s you and you’re interested in learning more, please contact me.
By the way…we do have a support person to oversee & coordinate all sponsor fulfillment, which allows the SD to spend more time working with sponsors. And Niven is still around for support.

| From the
Training Director |
| | Saturday Club Rides are currently suspended. SDBC's Board of Directors is holding a special meeting tonight (3/18,) to consider restarting the rides in April due to the following: The County of San Diego's risk level dropped this week from purple to red; vaccines are being administered to higher-risk groups; overall there is a reduction in new cases and hospitalizations in the county; and youth and adult sports are now being allowed by both the state and county.
Please watch this space for updates. If the Board approves officially restarting the rides, a date will be announced and there will be some changes to the timing of group rollouts to reduce crowds in the parking lot. Additional details will be provided via the Weekly Update. Charlie
Sykes

We will have socks from the Sock Guy in mid-April. They will have our 75th logo on them and I hear that they are guaranteed to add a few watts and/or mph. Seriously, these are great socks.
