| | BCCC welcomes new member Rachel King - member #1157 | | | With Covid cases on the rise again, we'd like to remind our members of the following: - Please do not participate in club rides if you are not feeling well.
- If you test positive for Covid after you've been on a club ride, please send a message to president@bccclub.org indicating the date and the ride you were on, so that the information can be disseminated.
- Effective October 1, 2021, through January 31, 2022, only BCCC members and guest members vaccinated against the COVID-19 virus will be allowed to participate in club-sponsored rides and attend BCCC social events.
We respect the rights of members who decided not to get vaccinated, but we also respect the rights of the vast majority of BCCC members who have decided to get vaccinated and do not feel comfortable riding and socializing with unvaccinated members. Those members who do not agree with this temporary policy change may request a full refund of their $25 membership fee or ask for a 4 month membership extension. This temporary policy will remain in effect until January 31, 2022, at which time it will be reevaluated by the BCCC Board to determine if it needs to be continued or modified. Questions or comments can be sent to the BCCC Board at the following address: Board@BCCClub.org. | | | Sponsor's Corner A feature highlighting services provided by our sponsors A complete list of sponsors is below Lynn & Lesley | | |

Next Saturday will be the debut of brand new ride and the first L4 trip to SoFi stadium. The ride is 28 miles and pretty darn flat (700 feet). If you haven't been out on group ride for a long time, this is a great ride to get back into group riding. Spend Saturday with your friends and see some new places. | | | | | The Friday Bun Ride went to Yellow Vase. Which Yellow Vase? Looks like Malaga Cove, always a pleasant place to hang out.
| | | | | L2 rode up Benedict Canyon and down Roscomare Road. It's always nicer going down Roscomare than going up it. They also took the time to enjoy the scenery.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Saturday–The L3 riders headed to Temescal Canyon and Gateway Park.
Peggy Fischer added a creative embellishment to their group photo.
| | | | | | | This weekend, L1 headed north instead of south, Topanga, Old Topanga and Stunt.
| | | | | | | | | Wednesday, Sept 15th, eight brave riders tested out a new route starting at the Anaheim Train Station and 64 miles later ending at an excellent beer and taco restaurant in Oceanside. For our return trip, we took the Metrolink train back to Anaheim which can hold 9 to 12 bikes without needing an advance reservation as AMTRAK does. It was a very fun and enjoyable trip on a new route down the coast with good food and adult beverages waiting for us at the end. | | | | | | | | | Tuesday Riders The Tuesday riders went to a club favorite, Porto's in Downey.
| | | | | | | Mario, it's not supposed to be goose, goose, goose then duck, is it? | | | L4 riders from this weekend's ride to Rustic Creek and last week's ride to the Corner Store | | | | | | | Saturday, September 25th Rides
