Weekly Update 4/19/2021

 

Celebrating athletic achievement that betters ourselves, our teammates and our community.


Seems like a relatively quiet weekend from the runners and triathletes.  We did have a couple of our cyclists out flying our colors this weekend. Jett Fluty with an overall win and Brad Wright with a top ten finish. Results below. 


The SBC Bike Shop at the Fairbanks opens in May. Mechanics are meeting every Monday 6-8 to get ready for the season. When the shop opens, Mondays will continue as Mechanics night and Wednesdays will be open to the public. Sign up to volunteer HERE. This is a very rewarding way to get to know other teammates and give back to the community at the same time. 


A few racing/training opportunities are coming 'round the bend for our racing cyclists. I'm seeing rumors of a Crit training race series to be held back at Jamestown near Rogersville. Details when I get them. Also Toasty Waffles Road Training Race series should be back this summer. Whether you're new or experienced at road riding, these will be great ways to train in a racing environment. Trevor Croley forwarded information for a unique opportunity for triathletes with some MTB skill- 2021 Off-Road Triathlon National Championships, which is a qualifier for 2022 Worlds is open for registration and right around the corner. Racing on the world stage is a fantastic experience and this is an excellent way to qualify. Register HERE




Continuing items of importance; 


Look for the Classic Beer Mile on the regular. It will be coming up every 3rd Saturday of the month. The next one will be May 15th. 


. Tell your beer drinking/running friends. Also look for new and better prizes! Information below in "Upcoming".


Are you and a bunch of teammates headed to a big event? An Ultra, a big gravel race, triathlon or volunteering for a trail workday? Wouldn't some SBC beer afterwards be refreshing? Would you like to take along some SBC Brews to share? Contact Neil. He will hook you up. 


Join SLACK . It really is the best way to keep in touch with teammates and to coordinate group activities. 


SBC Bar tape is finally in and available again. If you ordered a set, you can pick it up at the front desk at SGB- $25 cash only. 


If you would like commemorative brick to celebrate an athletic milestone, get in touch with Neil. These are really cool and stand as a lasting reminder of your epic achievement.
