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. | |

A Note From the Clothing Director | 2021 SDBC Kit Design Jersey Front | Bib Front | Jersey Back | Bib Back | STORE CLOSES* | EST. DELIVERY | November 4th | December 13th | * a new store will open immediately after the current
store closes. |
Last call for 2021 SDBC 75th Anniversary kit! The final 2021 store will close on October 28th. The new store will open some time in mid-November with the 2022 kit. Given the long delay in shipping, if you want anything from Pactimo with the 75th anniversary design before Christmas, you will need to place your order by 10/14. The 10/28 store orders will not arrive before Christmas. Stay tuned for the preview of the 2022 kit featuring our new Title Sponsor, Bonnici Law Group.

From the President |
| It’s a Weekend Of Racing in 2022 | |
The dates are official!
- Barrio Logan Grand Prix - Saturday, May 14, 2022
- Fiesta Island Time Trial #3* - Sunday, May 15, 2022
The weekend of racing concept is supported by Ralph Elliott, who does the race announcing for both events, and FITT Director Mike Barreras. During our recent board discussion about BLGP, one of the top questions was, “How do we attract more cyclists to the event?" The Weekend of Racing is an attempt to do that.
Several issues still need to be resolved including registration and state championships. We’ll talk more about this at our November BoD meeting on Tuesday, November 8th. You’re welcome to join us.
And if you’re a cyclist who runs or works at a hotel that’s centrally located to Barrio Logan and Fiesta Island, let me know and let’s see if we can work out a package deal for LA area cyclists to spend the weekend racing and enjoying San Diego.
Very exciting!
Mike
Mike McLaughlin SDBC President president@sdbc.org
* Our 2022 Fiesta Island Time Trial Series has races confirmed for #1 - January 9th, #2 - April 17th (yes, It’s Easter Sunday), and #3 - May 15th . A 4th date is pending for October.

A Note From the
Volunteer Director |
| Volunteer Director Needed | |
After serving so many years in this position, it is time for me to step down.
If you have been
enjoying the benefits of this club, it is time to step up and join the Board of Directors.
The BOD meets monthly. The Volunteer Director’s
job is simply to round up volunteers for our various events. Online volunteer sites make this task so much easier than when I started in this
position. Our great club members never fail to step up when needed to get the job done.
Please contact me if you are interested. I would be
happy to share more information. Linda Webb SDBC Volunteer Director volunteer@sdbc.org |

A Note From the
Volunteer Director |
| Looking for Someone to Take the Lead on the Borrego Ride and Camp | |
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. Linda Webb SDBC Volunteer
Director volunteer@sdbc.org |

Tamara’s friends are organizing and leading a remembrance ride for her at conversation pace on Sunday 11/21 at 9am starting at UCC following one of her favorite routes: the traditional 46 mile SDBC route.
