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 and refreshments

7:00 Presentation
Guest Speaker / Program: The Importance of Bicycle Fit
Kristen Lawrence of Pure Ride Cycles in Lake Forest will present the basics and finer points of fitting a bicycle to a rider. Frame size, seat height, seat angle, reach, stem length, knee position over pedals, cleat adjustment, bar angle and height, even the angle of brake hoods can make a ride more comfortable, more efficient and avoid injury. Kristen is a legendary bike fitter and will take us from the basics to finer points of fitting, sharing her countless fits from selling bicycles to new riders to the individualized professional fitting she offers.

There will be a raffle and refreshments - please come on down!

(Skips some of Spectrum, Thomas, Rockfield, Bake and upper SD Creek on return)

> Detail of Mile 10-17

Savvy Tips for Route 21:
The full route takes Bake across the 405 freeway...
Even though Bake is a Class II bikeway, Irvine and Caltrans have failed to paint any of the Complete Streets tools, and allows both right lanes to enter the freeway at two high speed entrances. Mile 19.7 to 20.3 can be a very stressful 1/2 mile.
Even though posted at 50 MPH, motorists speed on Bake, and they accelerate as they merge into the high speed entrances, making it critical for cyclists to assert their lane position early to be seen and safely cross the freeway.
You can’t signal and hope to be let over, you need to time your merge and be assertive.

Rockfield to Bake: @Mile 19.7
• Pause on Rockfield to regroup; several cyclists together have an advantage to be seen and control any lane. Pausing also lets you time the signal so less traffic is coming down Bake behind you as you merge into the road.
• Merge out of the narrowing #4 lane as soon as possible to control the #3 lane.
There is no room to ride the gutter & share the #4 lane with passing vehicles.
Clear the #4 RTOL: take & Control the #3 lane or take the sidewalk.
If you don’t feel safe merging over, use a driveway to get onto the sidewalk.

Bake to 405 NB entrance: Mile 19.9
• If you are already controlling the #3 lane, motorists heading for the freeway will pass on the right in the #4 RTOL. Those going straight can merge and pass you in the #1 or #2 lanes on your left.
• If you try to control the #4 RTOL you will have speeding motorist passing and entering the freeway across you from the #3 combo lane, and will be unable to merge over to control the #3 lane. Just stay right and use the shoulder.
• If you make it to the shoulder or ride the sidewalk, watch out at the crosswalk. If one lane stops for you the second lane may not.
Controlling the #3 combo lane really is safest.

BAKE to 405 SB entrance: Mile 20.3
• There is an unmarked bike lane over the bridge, but merge back out to control the #3 combo lane as early as possible, well before the bike lane ends for a RTOL.
• If you make it to the shoulder after the bike lane ends or ride the sidewalk, watch out at the crosswalk. If one lane stops for you the second lane may not.
• Past the exit, everyone can get together in the bike lane at mile 20.4.

BCI kicks off Summer 2024 with a BBQ/picnic following the Sizzling Summer Remote Rides.

Burgers will be ready around the time you return from your ride, 11:30ish - until about 1:30p.m. Lunch includes a burger, chips, cookie and a drink. Or opt to bring your own picnic lunch and leave it in an ice chest in your car.

Whatever your choice, you must RSVP by June 19th. If you are not a current member, we hope you will join (or renew) and come to this event, which is partially subsidized by our dues, including the park reservation fees.

BURGER CHOICES:
Beef, Turkey or Veggie ($10)

If you can’t deal with paying online, RSVP anyway and click on the option to pay at a later date. If you reserve a burger, it's yours whether you show or not, and eventual reimbursement will be collected. 

*All food supplies will be purchased based on orders submitted by the 19th. So remember, you must RSVP and order by June 19th. [OK, so we could have a few extra burgers if we don’t burn or drop too many through the grill and if you show up last minute, then you could get lucky. Expect to settle up ($10) with BCI at a later date.]

Reminder: Consumption of alcohol beverages is not permitted on city property.
