Due to insufficient interest (not enough RSVPs), the clinic is CANCELLED. We typically need at least 10 to carry out a clinic. If you still desire taking a bike skills clinic, contact the SB Bike Coalition for instruction. Click on the logo to the left. They're a great organization that have worked wonders for the cycling community of SB.
We as SB Tri Club want to get you out on the road, training, enjoying the beauty of where we live (and putting you at ease as to why you pay the rent).
So first things first, whether you're the most experienced rider or hesitant to get on your bike, become a more confident rider by attending our Bike Skills / Ride / Brunch at the East Beach Parking Lot. Look for the SB Tri Club Tent.
So grateful to Measure A and the SB Bike Coalition for facilitating the event. I will reiterate, all levels are welcome and encouraged.
