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

Ride Start & End near picnic area:
Upper lot of Turtle Rock Park off Turtle Rock Drive

Burgers will be ready around the time you return from your ride, 11:30ish - until about 1:30p.m. Lunch includes a burger, chips, watermelon, cookie and a drink.
$10 includes food and also paying the City of Irvine to allow a group picnic.

Food ‘issues’? Missed the deadline?
Opt to bring your own picnic lunch and leave it in your car for after the ride.

We do have a couple of extra’s available - contact bill@nbikeirvine and we will see what we can do…

BURGER CHOICES:
Beef, Turkey or Veggie ($10) with or without cheese!

*All food supplies will be purchased based on orders submitted by the 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 but no promises. Expect to settle up ($10) with BCI at a later date.]

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

See the Rose Parade the fun and easy way! No traffic hassles getting in and out of Pasadena and a chance to preview the floats up close before the parade starts. It's a ride that anyone can do as it is less than 17 miles.

THIS IS A NO HOST RIDE -
SO THERE MAY NOT BE A RIDE LEADER AT THE START:
MEET UP, WAIT UNTIL 6:40 AND STAY TOGETHER !
The sun is not up at 6:40 so lights and reflectors are required, but we will be in a well lit group. Reminder, until sunrise it is much better to have headlights and tail light on solid, not flashing.
We cycle to the staging area along Orange Grove Blvd where dismount & walk bikes to see and smell the floats up close.
When the parade starts at 8 AM, we then ride to a viewing spot, lock up our bikes and find a place to stand or use pre-purchased seats in the stands. For those interested in purchasing stand tickets, please call the Sharp Seating Company M-Th 9A-4P 626-795-4171. These stands are just west of Bonnie on the south side of Colorado. Free seats / standing space is available on the sidewalk and the Chick-fil-A patio where we will lock up the bikes on their bike racks.

When the parade is over, we jump back on our bikes and pedal about 8 miles away from the traffic and gridlock to lunch in Alhambra.

What to bring: we suggest you dress in layers, bring a backpack with change of shoes for watching the parade, extra gloves and/or jacket or hat, and a lock for your bike. Bathrooms and snacks are available near our viewing spot.
