Bike the Coast

Today we celebrate the 5th Annual Green Sports Day and its #greensports Movement! Green Sports Day celebrates sustainability leadership within the sports industry and a call to action for more innovative approaches to tackle climate change through sports. The global green sports community is uniting to use the power of sports to increase awareness and action on environmental and social challenges our world faces. How have you celebrated the sports greening movement? Post a picture using hashtags #greensportsday #BikeTheCoast and share your sustainable inspirations! Whether it’s using a reusable water bottle, a towel instead of paper towels or recycling, show us your support for Green Sports Day.

It is with great sadness and disappointment that we are announcing the 2020 Bike the Coast's cancellation due to the restrictions throughout California around the COVID 19 crisis. Our team and stakeholders have worked diligently over these past several months to create COVID mitigation processes, safety processes for our volunteers, riders and staff, and other considerations in the hope of conducting this annual event. As a small business who takes great pride in our events,... this decision is very difficult, but we're left with no other choice. We are offering full rollover of your entry, in whatever distance and package you purchased to either the November 6, 2021 event or 2022 as well as the option to rollover to our San Diego Century Ride on May 22, 2021 or to the 2022 event. To choose one of the four options, please select your option on the registration page of Bike the Coast from the email link sent to you earlier this week. Follow the prompts to add your email or login and then finalize your choice. We will need a selection by October 1, 2020. If you have purchased additional merchandise items please contact us for a refund on these individual items at [email protected]. We remain dedicated to creating and hosting a safe, professional, and fun ride in future years. Regards, Spectrum Sports Management
