BCI - Bicycle Club of Irvine
Description edit
The Bicycle Club of Irvine is a recreational and social cycling club for men and women of all ages and skill levels. We are not a racing team. We have members from all over Southern California; in fact, only 25% of the members live in Irvine. Our members ride all sorts of bicycles: road bikes, tandems, mountain bikes and hybrids.
We have ride levels on our scheduled rides to accommodate riders of all skill levels, climbing abilities and pace. All ages and abilities are welcome. Minors are requested to be accompanied by an adult.
In 1981, the City of Irvine recreation staff at Deerfield Community Park started the Bicycle Club of Deerfield for middle school students. The club went on weekend rides to the beach, overnight rides down the coast and the staff provided bicycle maintenance classes. The club members discovered that they enjoyed cycling together, membership grew and adults began to join. In 1982, the group began meeting weekly at various park sites in Irvine, not just Deerfield Community Park. As a result, the name and was changed to the Bicycle Club of Irvine (BCI) to represent the entire Irvine community.
