Membership Meeting

On a scheduled Thursday of every other month
at the Irvine Ranch Water District’s
Community Meeting Room.
The Public is welcome.

6:30 Social Time with food & refreshments
7:00 Presentation:
Zeta Saddles

Dr. Patrick O'Shea is both a licensed Doctor of Chiropractic and a lifelong cyclist who designed Zeta Saddles from direct clinical exposure to the exact pain points cyclists report most often.

He's been in practice and cycling for over 30 years and former Team Chiropractor for the San Diego Padres specializing in manual therapies for overuse and sports injuries.

Zeta Saddles positions itself around his patented materials-and-design system, Reactive Padding™, rather than around saddle styling or simple "saddle geometry" marketing language.

Zeta is not merely selling “a more comfortable saddle”; it is selling a clinically informed solution to numbness, sit-bone pain, perineal pressure, vibration, and cumulative tissue irritation across multiple rider categories including road, gravel, and mountain biking, plus e-bike, spin, and commuter segments.


Mark your calendars! Future meeting dates:
Annual Meeting on October 15
If you have a suggestion for future meetings, please contact bod@BikeIrvine.org

Irvine Ranch Water District makes its facilities available for use by residents and nonprofit organizations merely as a public service, but does not, by allowing this use, endorse or support the purpose of the event or its sponsor.

new 1,200 foot bridge across the 5 Freeway.
If we leave at 8:45 we should be able to get the 4.5 miles to the event in time to attend the celebration… so we have a special route created just for today.
If you miss the early start you can still ride at 9:15 and be one of the first to ride across the new bridge & catch up with the group at coffee.

Not that we could see it behind the crowd taking photos, or hear any of the speeches with a PA system not sufficient for the huge turn out - but BCI was there!
