Hello SYVCC
We have a winner on the club color design, we will announce it in a couple weeks after we finish finalizing all our Sponsors. The Membership renewal and Kit order window will open in Mid Nov for 2 weeks, and we are hoping to have to the kits by the end of the year.
Look out for a dedicated email on volunteers to help out at Rancho Alegre trail work, and also for our section of road we sponsor on Amour Ranch
See note from Club member Darrin Potter on a ride and BBQ he is organizing. This is not a SYVCC coordinated event, but if you are free try to take part, it’s always a lot of fun. Please contact Darrin for any information.

All County Ride to Tepusquet: Oct 31 Halloween 9a from Los Olivos. The club is coordinating with all the bike clubs, bike shops and race teams in Santa Barbara County to have a meet up ride. Hopefully this can lead to these a few times a year around SB County. We are coordinating the 1st one. The Ride is going to start at the new Headquarters of Dr J’s/SB Wine Country Tours which is moving to Los Olivos this weekend. There will be water at the Top of Tep. Look out for all the details soon. We hope to get 50-75 riders for this event.
