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.

Ultegra Groupo and Sella Italia saddle
Pedals not included (negotiable)
Reynolds Attack wheels
The crank set is a 53/39 and June 2019 I put on an 11-30 set-up on it for easier gearing.

This is a great set-up for a smaller rider or a junior just getting into the sport. I LOVE this bike. It is in good to great condition-well maintained through the years (bought in 2013). I stopped riding it about 18 months ago- I got the gravel bug and am just not riding road anymore.

I’m happy to answer any questions or have you come by and check it out.
$2,300

After 20 years, Team Webb has decided it's time to pass the baton on this trip. We are looking for someone to take the reins, hopefully, and keep it going.

This is a 2 day event, riding from Mira Mesa Park and Ride to Borrego Palm Canyon Campground and returning the next day. Sag vehicles carry your camp gear. SDBC provides dinner and breakfast. Everyone helps with cooking and camp clean up.

Keep it the same? Change it up? That would be your call. If no one steps up, there will be no trip this year.

We are willing to help.

Contact Linda with your questions and ideas.

The new owners of the property on Mimulus St. in Rancho Santa Fe have chosen to remove the water spigot that has been used by cyclists for many years. As the weather warms up, please plan ahead by using larger bottles and/or carrying two if you have only used one in the past. Cold water is now being supplied by Cafe La Terre in Solana Beach where we have been stopping for coffee since the restart of the Saturday Rides in April.

Would you be interested in a CPR class for a nominal registration fee? The idea is to teach it on a Saturday afternoon, after normal club rides. The Coalition is trying to find out about how much interest there is.

Please email coalition@sdbc.org if you are generally interested. Exact date is TBD; no commitment at this time. There may be multiple sessions.

Below is a messsage from Carlos Mendoza. His son Carlo won a bicycle as a prize from SDBC:


It was a thrill to stop by the shop and pick a bike for my son. It was an even bigger thrill to arrive home and surprise him with the new bike. Needless to say, he was ecstatic. Because of this, I know that I will be able to spend more quality time with my son as we are already planning outings together. Your prize was not only a bike, it is quality bonding time with my son.
Thank you, Carlos
