Weekly Update 8/30/2021

 

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




As we, as a club, approach our 10th Anniversary (2022), we are looking into the future for SBCA - and want/need your input.  Please take a second to complete this survey here. 


Trailfest is coming up and registration is now open. This is always a great event for the trail runners and a terrific precursor to the Dogwood Canyon Trail races a month later. The event will be at 2 Rivers in Highlandville. Details and registration can be found HERE


SBC was well represented as triathlon made a return to the town of Willard with the Bonnie and Clyde Blitz. This race used to be a staple in a circuit of local triathlons. Let's hope that trend continues. Les Schaeffer made the AG Podium for the Triple Threat (MTB race Friday, HHH Century Saturday, and half marathon trail run Sunday) at Hotter than Hell in Wichita Falls, TX. Road Warrior Brad Wright came back from being hit by a car recently to lay down some hard miles at the Joe Martin Stage Race in Fayetteville, AR.








New socks are at SGB. There are 12 small pairs, 24 medium pairs,  25 large pairs, and 23 XL pairs. The price is $15 a pair.  They are in reception at Strong Garner Bauer, 415 E Chestnut Expressway, 65802 - office open from 8-5, Mon-Fri.  First come, first served. (p.s. you can also pay for them on Venmo, and we will mail you what you want - message if that is easier.) 


The fate of Lone Pine Bike Park is still very much in limbo. Learn the history of this park and try not to be inspired by the kids who set its wheels in motion. There is a small group of nearby residents trying to get the park's progress halted. You can still leave comments and write to Springfield City Council in support of this endeavor.   


The SBC Bikeshop at the Fairbanks continues its summer roll. The shop will be open for five more Wednesdays. Then we will close down for the season. It has been a very good year so far. Let's close it out strong. Thank you so much to those who volunteer. Volunteer efforts have put a lot of bikes back on the road and put a lot of riders on their first bike.  




SBC Bricks are still available. Details below under "Continuing items of importance." Are you interested in seeing the SBCA logo and some team gear that we do not already have? Just shoot us a DM or email Stephanie (Stephs090386@gmail.com), and we can see what we can do. 


Continuing items of importance:


SBCA Segment Challenge (riding and running) will be starting September 1st, and the segment will run for the length of the month. Each month will be the same time frame, and this challenge will run for a full year. Let us know what segments you would like to see in the challenge. 

We want to hear your stories. How does racing shape your life? Your perspective on the race? Is there an experience that stands out? We’ll read every response, but nothing will be shared without your permission. Shot Stephanie an email stephs090386@gmail.com 


We need volunteers to help with a youth bike maintenance class at the Fairbanks Bike Shop. This is a great way to give back to the community and youth in the area. Please reach out to Stephanie Snow ( Stephs090386@gmail.com ) or Jason Stratton ( jason@blackriverimaging.com ) if you can help. 


It has been a while since we offered PEDAL Industries SBC kit bags. No minimum order number is required.  The pro bag is the newest bag offered by PEDAL Industries. You can also get your name added to it for customization. There is also now a "changing poncho" that is offered on the website.


December 13th Fleet Feet Springfield extends a 10% discount on electronics and a 15% discount on in-store products to SBC Athletics. So be sure you mark your calendars. 


Tour de Rock is offering SBCA a 20% discount for registration with code SBCA2021 Link to Registration.


Pirate Perry Events is now offering SBCA 10% off of their events. There are a few exceptions on a few events they don't direct or those races n but are posted on their website. The code is "SBCA 10off".  Link to Events 


Look for the Classic Beer Mile on the regular. It will be coming up every 3rd Saturday of the month. Tell your beer-drinking/running friends. Also, look for new and better prizes! The information below is 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 afterward be refreshing? Would you like to take along some SBC Brews to share? Contact Neil. He will hook you up. 


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


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


If you would like a 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.

The cycling community showed up in force in support of the Lone Pine Bike Park. There were several organized rides to Kingsway United Methodist for the open house. SBC Athletics was part of that significant number. The cycling community of Springfield should be very proud of that showing.

Many of you know that the new trail development at Lone Pine Park has been put on hold. On August 19th from 5:00-7:00 pm, there will be a public open house opportunity to comment on the proposed improvements for Lone Pine Park at the outdoor pavilion at Kingsway United Methodist Church at 2401 S. Lone Pine Ave. Let's save Lone Pine Park trails for the sake of More Trails Close to Home!




Judge Sifferman won his 14th state TT championship over the weekend. Charles Givens took 3rd place at the same state TT race.





Gary Shaw ran the South Dakota Horse 100 and took 10th with an overall time of 22:48:33. He is on a mission to run 100 in all fifty states. The current tally is 10 states, and the states are quickly dwindling down.  

 


 

Jonathan Traugher, AKA Solo_Gravelest, will be competing in the Long Voyage race in Lincoln, Nebraska August 20th.  The Long Voyage is a 300-mile, fully self-supported gravel race that will run in conjunction with the existing Gravel Worlds events. You'll be able to track him here






The Hoffmann’s will be heading to the PNW next week for a backpacking trip in WA and, unfortunately, won’t be able to take any SBC beer with them. However, to spread the good news of the delicious carbs produced by SBC, they are hiking a sticker up the famous Mailbox Peak of the Snoqualmie Region. Decisions are best made among friends, so which sticker should go on the mailbox?

The last Railcar Root Beer Junior Ride before school starts this Saturday, August 14th, so come out for one last ride before life gets a lot busier.

We'll meet at the Willard Trailhead on the Frisco Highline Trail at 9:00 am, and we'll enjoy some Railcar root beer after. 


SBCA Segment Challenge (riding and running) will be starting September 1st, and the segment will run for the length of the month. Each month will be the same time frame, and this challenge will run for a full year. Let us know what segments you would like to see in the challenge.

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


SBCA's Annual Mileage Challenge is still ongoing and we would love to hear how your journey is going. Reach out to us and let us know. To complete this challenge all you will have to do is prove your 2021 millage from Strava (or whatever online training program you use).  And this year, for the first time, you can also contribute to your millage totals with all of your 2021 SBC $ receipts.  (1$ spent at SBC = I mile towards your annual goal/challenge.) Please see below for the 2021 millage goals. 


Riding:10,000 miles 

Running: 2,500 miles 

Hiking: 750 miles 

Swimming: 625 miles 

Frustrated there is never a Multisport/triathlon option?  Fear not.  We have you covered too.  For you - a score of 2,500 is the goal.  (You’ll also need a Ph.D. in math to figure this out.  Towards your total score of 2,500, you will be allowed to apply the following credits:  SBC $’s are worth one point.  Each running mile is worth one point.  Each riding mile is worth 0.25 points.  Each swimming mile is worth 4 points.  (Hiking not included.)  Add these towards your total accumulated point score/goal to reach 2,500.  (Also – if you don’t understand this challenge – you are not eligible to participate in it, and you should see the riding, running, hiking, and swimming challenges above, instead 🙂 .) 


Your ride/run training program just got a little bit more competitive with the SBCA Segment Challenge (riding and running). Have a favorite segment that you would like to see in the challenge? Message it to the team page, and we’ll take a look. Segment requirements include no stop signs, it must be challenging, and around five (or more) minutes long. Also, NO motor/e-bike power of any kind, but non-powered/e-bike leadouts/team efforts are permitted. So grab some friends and go smash that thing!


Many of you have asked for the team store to be extended so the team store will be open July 9th – July 23rd. The estimated ship date is September 6th.  Link to teams store here 


This Thursday is the last Poker Run of the year! If you have not made it out to this run make sure you go to it this week because you will not be disappointed. The runner with the best poker hand wins a 6-pack of Finish Line. 


We are needing volunteers to help with a youth bike maintenance class at the Fairbanks Bike Shop. This is a great way to give back to the community and youth in the area. Please reach out to Stephanie Snow ( Stephs090386@gmail.com ) or Jason Stratton ( jason@blackriverimaging.com ) if you can help. 


Is anyone going to Ragbrai in Iowa this year? We may have some beer that needs to be transported there. Plus, there may be some beer in it for you. Please email stephs090386@gmail.com if you have you will be going to Ragbrai.

We still struggle with getting results reported. If you PR'd, finished something big, just crossed a milestone, meeting a goal, and especially if you podiumed, we all want to hear about it. You can email stephs090386@gmail.com. This helps to get the results reported on time.
