Annual Membership
CLUB MISSION:
Our mission is to create opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to find achievement, adventure, and connection beyond the cycling race venues, by incorporating cycling as a physical and mental health benefit and as another means of transportation.
PURPOSE:
To promote, direct, support and encourage competitive amateur cycling of club members at the local, state, national, and world levels. To raise funds for the benefit of the club’s general membership and to support the club’s racing members. To solicit new members from the regional cycling community through written advertisement, verbal contact, and by each member maintaining a positive, friendly but competitive image when wearing the S2C Cycling Team uniform.
CLUB RACE:
Our team’s annual event is the Tour de Murrieta (TdM). The success of this race determines how much money can be spent for member reimbursements and support. It is the board’s intentions to reimburse Cat. 3 category riders a total of $70 per month, Cat. 4s $55 per month, Cat. 5s $45 per month, triathlon team members $50 per event/total of five per year, and recreational members $60 for one century ride (100 miles) per reimbursement period. A high caliber event like ours requires a great deal of staffing. Assisting with this event whether it be before, during, or after the event is a requirement.
RACING REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAM:
Race: Funding for reimbursement is dependent upon club funds and individual agreements between riders and the team’s Board of Directors. Any other anticipated race expenses such as out of area travel shall be pre-negotiated with the team’s Board of Directors.
Qualification for Race Reimbursements: The following requirements apply: 1) Work the team race-no exceptions. Note: Qualification lasts one year (one racing season). 2) Wear the current year’s jersey when racing and or training. 3) Wear the current year’s jersey when accepting awards. 4) Have S2C/BOSCH pb Eliel (or current team name) listed as your team on your current racing license. 5) All reimbursements must be submitted no later than the month following the race.
Limitations: Total dollar amounts available for reimbursement are dependent on the financial success of TdM and the club as a whole. The reimbursement policy may be modified by the Board of Directors. Modifications and reimbursement periods are posted on the team’s website/Forum. Recreational members are not eligible for both the century and racing reimbursement program.
Reimbursement Periods: January 1 thru Sept 1, for all events, and only after the Tour de Murrieta takes place.
Membership Discounts: Members will be eligible for all sponsored team product and related shop discounts at Stage 2 Cyclery.
*Note: Members may belong to more than one cycling club, but in fairness to our sponsors, members seeking race reimbursements
