DETOUR ON 30 MILE ROUTE TODAY
There is 1/2 mile of construction zone on Lagna Canyon.
It is a segment wher ethere is no shoulder, concrete barriers and you must take the lane. You can ‘time the light’ to follow a platoon of traffic and ride downhill before the next platoon of traffic catches up with you.
To avoid it, take the SHORT CUT route, or the detour:
Pavona Sidewalk & Romano sidewalk to Lake Forest Road to Moulton to El Toro Road. The construction is at mile 8.4 but to detour, you must cross the 133 @ mile 4.5.
The DETOUR WILL ADD 2.5 MILES to today’s ride.
Map/Profile/.tcx
This DETOUR will be offered until the construction work is completed by Caltrans.

New Jersey Pick Up!

The New BCI Jerseys are here!

Great news! We will be distributing the new jerseys to those who paid for them on three Saturday mornings before the ride: This is the 3rd Saturday.

Why so early? Our volunteers want to ride! You need time to change clothes and/or put your jersey in your car. We need time to put the tables and jersey inventory back in the car.

If you don’t remember what size you ordered, no problem! We have a list of all the orders.

If you ask a friend to pick up your order, please text them giving them permission. They will need to show the text when they pick up your jersey. 

If your friends ask how they can buy a BCI  jersey, they can add their name to the waitlist.
Once we have 25 people wanting to purchase a jersey, we’ll re-open a store.

New Jersey Pick Up!

The New BCI Jerseys are here!

Great news! We will be distributing the new jerseys to those who paid for them on three Saturday mornings before the ride: This is the 2nd - 1 more to go!

Oct. 19 - 8:05-8:35

Why so early? Our volunteers want to ride! You need time to change clothes and/or put your jersey in your car. We need time to put the tables and jersey inventory back in the car.

If you don’t remember what size you ordered, no problem! We have a list of all the orders.

If you ask a friend to pick up your order, please text them giving them permission. They will need to show the text when they pick up your jersey. 

If your friends ask how they can buy a BCI  jersey, they can add their name to the waitlist.
Once we have 25 people wanting to purchase a jersey, we’ll re-open a store.
