Everyone- get these events on your radar- The Unofficial Queen City Century- Benefits go to replace the Drury Triathlon team's gear and bicycles. Queen City Century there are several distance options to choose from. The event also includes a 5k fun run. Come out and show your support if you can. Also this- Back to School Bike Maintenance Class , we need mechanically adept team members to volunteer to help out with this. If you haven't helped out at The Fairbanks this season, you really need to see our new space and how this whole endeavor has evolved. It's really a great service to the community. 

From the Editor- If it goes well, this will be the last newsletter notification by email. Going forward, I'm dropping the practice of sending email notifications to each person on the mailing list.

Celebrating athletic achievements that better ourselves, our teammates, and our community.

Big update from the SBC Bike Shop at The Fairbanks; 

“It’s been a great season at the bike shop so far, all be it in the bizarre COVID world that we all now live in. 

We wanted to be sure folks knew how the community bike shop worked, behind the scenes.  The shop is run by 100% volunteers.  It is stocked with bike shop supplies/tools/masks, etc that are either donated directly or by the shop using the funds generated by our fundraisers (annual moonlight rides, February Trivia Night, etc). 

So what happens to the money generated from bike sales?  For example, last Wednesday night we generated almost $500 in sales.  Where does that money go?  100% of it.  And we do mean 100% of it.  Goes to the Fairbanks and the Drew Lewis Foundation’s mission. 

For $500, The Fairbanks:

• is able to create supplemental food boxes for as many as 30 families.
• can get 25 kids new outfit and back-to-school supplies.
• can purchase 5 tablets for kids to checkout this fall for those that will have to homeschool (they have been using wifi and our chrome books all summer for same reason - number is increasing of those needing technology and wifi).
• is able to provide evening childcare for two months, for families completing IT and web development classes.

So every bike you donate.  Every bike you persuade a friend or neighbor to donate.  Every hour you volunteer.  All help towards the goal - bike sales/revenue.  These efforts directly result in: A) Getting a really well priced bike into the hands of someone who really wants/needs it; and B) generates revenue that ends-up directly benefiting the community-centric-mission of the Fairbanks.  100% of it.

Held over from last week- The unofficial Queen City Century is intended as a fundraiser for the Drury Triathlon Team. Much of their gear was stolen in a burglary. 

Here are the Unofficial QCC route options for 2020.

100 miles. Route: https://www.strava.com/routes/2709048236767386808 (gas stations at 20, 35, 50 and 88 miles).

Tons of racing happening over the weekend. So nice to be reporting results again. The team was very well represented. A couple of overall, wins, several AG podiums, some PRs and even a state record.  Great job everyone.

Many thanks to everyone who showed interest for the Inclusivity Chair position on the SBCA leadership committee.  We are stoked to let everyone know that Brian Barr will fill that position for the club.  Please contact him directly with any thoughts you might have in helping him make SBCA as inclusive as possible

The annual Bolivar Frisco out and back was another great success. If you've ever enjoyed any of Springfield's greenway trails, consider making a donation to Ozark Greenways. Check out this pinned post and video, then look for the "Donate" button. These trails exist and are maintained through hard work, volunteering and donations.

Looks like several SBC runners participated in the Firecracker 5000 5k/10k at the Landing in Branson.

Finish Line Lager Release Party Friday 5pm at SBC on the upstairs patio. This beer was made by the team for the community. This beer was conceived, designed and brewed by SBC Athletics and SBC.

Bicycle Outlet supplied the SBC Bike Shop at The Fairbanks with a trailer load bikes to get ready to sell. The bike shop is operating more like a regular retail shop these days. The new space has been excellent. Even in these Covid-19 times, we've seen plenty of traffic. More importantly, this year like none before we've seen families come together and leave with bikes.

We need volunteers to help out with Moms and Daughters Bike Maintenance Night. You can help the attendees with the maintenance skills, or help us serve root beer. Go to the link for details.

Celebrating athletic achievements that better ourselves, our teammates, and our community.

Several events are making their way back to the "Upcoming Events" section. Have a look below. For those of you who have completed 10 races in SBC gear, SBC10 T-shirts are in and can be picked up at the SGB offices.

FYI new SBCA member, Dylan Pelletier (and self-professed social media guru) has asked to take over the SBCA and Bike Shop social media responsibilities.   As part of that, he has requested that any pics which are SBCA related on Instagram are tagged with @sbc_athletics and the hashtag #fortheloveofsport is used in the description – that way he can harvest them to be used on the team social media accounts.  You can also send pics to the team FB account via messenger/messages.  And also directly to Dylan on IG @dylan_pedaling_harder .  A huge thanks also goes out to Michelle Rador, who almost single handedly worked the SBCA FB and IG accounts for maybe as long as the last two or more years, tirelessly keeping the team sites ticking over with an athlete post and a mothership post each day.  Thanks Michelle, so much for your hard work.  And please everyone welcome, Dylan to SBCA. #fortheloveofsport.

Weekly Update 6/22/2020

Celebrating athletic achievements that better ourselves, our teammates, and our community.

If you're on social media, you've probably heard that the Drury Triathlon Team's bike room/shop fell victim to thieves last week. The thieves not only took bikes, but they also got many tools, helmets and the team bike rack. Keep an eye out for Orbea Orca bicycles outfitted with Shimano 105 and sporting the Drury colors of red, black and gray. As a result, the Unofficial Queen City Century will be a fundraiser to aid the team in replacing some of what was stolen from them. This will be a show and go, unsupported ride. Keep your groups at 25 or less. Multiple distances. More details on the Facebook Event page. 

Opening night at the Fairbanks was a huge success. The new space is so much better for shoppers and mechanics alike. One thing we learned in this Covid-19 world is that we could use plenty of disposable masks. If you are looking to donate something, masks is something we could definitely use. Donations can be made through the week by dropping them off at Strong-Garner-Bauer offices at 415 East Chestnut. More info here; The SBC Bike Shop at the Fairbanks

Celebrating athletic achievements that better ourselves, our teammates, and our community.

• The research, drafting and publishing of the SBCA Code of Conduct has taught us a lot about inclusivity.  It is very easy, without thinking, to alienate others in all sorts of different ways.  Some off the cuff remark about a physical trait, or a nickname - just by way of illustrations – made/given without thought - can, in fact, be demeaning/inappropriate in ways that with just a little thought could have been totally prevented.  With all the time we spend together on the road and on the trails, please take time to think before you speak or act, and ask yourself:  "If I was in their shoes, would this make me feel included and welcome, or could it instead make me feel uncomfortable, belittled, objectified, or otherwise diminished in any way?"  Every single day, in all our interactions with each other, let’s be sure to think before we speak, and think before we act.  As we train together to grow as athletes, let’s also train together to grow as people. 
• In furtherance of this issue: we would like to add to the leadership committee an “Inclusivity Chair" focused on fostering equitable opportunities, fair treatment, and mutual respect throughout the club and our broader athletic community (to the extent we have control/input over that).  If you are interested in filling this role – please let club secretary, Heather Cribbs, know at: h_cribbs@icloud.com.  Many thanks.  

Here's an excellent charity opportunity honoring one of our outstanding member's 55th birthday. Have a look; 55 Challenge
