Joining
California Road Club
Membership in
CRC is open to men and women of all ages and abilities. The club's
focus is amateur road racing, and most members come to the club
with at least some racing experience. But all we require really
is an interest in the sport and commitment to helping with the club's
activities throughout the year, including organizing the Mt. Tam
Hill Climb.
We've always
been a club where most of the members know each other, and we'd like to keep it that way.
So we take a little more time
with new members than some other clubs. If you're interested
in joining CRC, please introduce yourself - just look for our
Poggio jerseys at races or out on the road.
Ride
with us
Our club meets many Saturdays and Sundays throughout the year for
fast group training rides in Marin County. We depart either from
the south parking lot of the Golden Gate Bridge at 8 a.m., with
the bridge group ride, or from Poggio restaurant in Sausalito at about 8:45.
Group size varies, depending on our racing and training schedules. If you
see us, please say hello and let us know if you're interested in
joining CRC.
Meeting us on the road
is the best way for prospective members to meet us and see if CRC
is a good fit. If you want
more info, email us at contact@californiaroadclub.org
(due to the volume of spam a lot of these don't get through,
so in-person is still the best way to reach us).
Membership
Benefits
Membership benefits change year to year, but recently have included
access to deals on bikes, frames, and cycling gear; discounts at
local cycling-related businesses; team clothing (at cost or lower);
destination training camps at reasonable cost; and access to one
of the country's leading training programs. We also meet throughout
the year for dinner & cycling talk at a local restaurant.
