Melanie Urias has passed away after a brief battle with cancer on August 6th surrounded by Marc and their daughter and son, Marissa and Marshall. Marc and Melanie were "best friends for 42 years and husband & wife for 39 years.” Marc served as our club’s president for many years until he resigned in Spring 2025 to support and care for Melanie.

While Melanie left all the cycling to Marc, she was a good friend to BCI and could always be counted on to volunteer at the annual meetings/banquets. She would go the extra mile by making appetizers or sides to augment our catered menus.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to Marc. Please reach out to him with some kind words at marcurias@outlook.com
