The SFVBC Credo
The following list of rules, which have been unofficial for as long as anyone can remember, was made official by board action in September 2015 as the club “credo”. Mostly common sense, the rules are nonetheless critical to members’ safety.
- Obey all traffic laws
- Be courteous and “ride friendly”
- Don’t usurp anyone’s right of way
- Represent our club and the sport of cycling well
- Hold your line
- Ride safely and predictably
- Call and point out road hazards
- Help each other out with flats and mechanicals
- Respect regroup points and break locations
- Let someone know if you intend to deviate from the route
The Club’s primary communication methods are periodic emails to club membership, Facebook notifications, and the website. Every so often the club will hold an event, a speaker relevant to the cycling industry, our annual picnic, BJ’s night, or other events that will be communicated through these channels. For ride updates please check the website and Facebook. If you are interested in a ride, click the going/maybe buttons on the website as it will signal to others that there is interest in that particular ride. We try and update as often as we can so check both places to be sure for any changes. We look forward to seeing you at the ride start and please let us know of any questions you may have.
