 "But Bill! How can I carry all of my own stuff!?!" : See tips on touring Cheep! Due to popular Whining; Jim von Tungeln is coordinating options to haul luggage to the Inn or campground. If you need more than a fresh t-shirt, some loafers & a credit card, or if you have a spouse driving down already who could bring a few bags along, or you have a contact with a trucking company, contact Jim to coordinate! Right now the price is $10 for luggage service, and 'volunteers' who want to work for cash rather than ride the tour are being solicited... Contact Bill or Jim if you have a truck or van & are willing to be a luggage porter for the BCI: Must take luggage at City Hall - have it at the lobby of Inn by noon - Load again Sunday from 7:30 to 8:30 & have it at City Hall by afternoon for riders to claim... |

Camping: Limited spaces (24) are available for tent camping at the South Carlsbad State Beach. Gas guzzling car parking is very limited - coordinate with Bill if you are planning to have another person drive down &/or camp with you (add $5), There are only 2 cars allowed per camp site so coordinate with Bill to car camp before they are all full! Inn or other lodging plans : Make your own
reservations... Ok, you can almost have as much fun but sleep
in a bed indoors (and have a pool & bath tub etc.): the beach
is a short walk/ride from the Inn. Secure your own room reservation
at the Carlsbad Inns
of America @ (760) 931-1185 & ask for one of
the group discounted block of rooms for the Bicycle Club of Irvine.
Compare with AAA & other discounts - you may get a better
rate but make sure they include you in the BCI block of rooms!
Make reservations as soon as possible, as the Inn will likely
fill up again this year! Dinner: Bob Ruris has coordinated a dinner for all at the Rain Tree bar / restaurant. We have booked their banquet room for an early dinner. $20 (not including adult beverages) will include you in the banquet! Dinner reservations required in advance so sign up! No Day of diners please! - contact Bob for details; The dinner at the Raintree will include: *Grilled boneless breast of chicken marinated in lemon juice, herbs and olive oil with BBQ sauce *Salad *Hot rolls and butter *Potato or rice *Dessert *Coffee or Tea We are not allowed to bring in our own wine, but a cocktail waitress will be available to take individual, pay for your own, drinks. After dinner we will all walk or ride over to the camp ground (site 185) for sunset & campfire somores to fully appreciate the touring experience! Sag stop refreshment & a unique bicycle event with a few great people! If you want your luggage carried for you to the Inn send $40... If you want to do your own thing for dinner, just pay $10 for the tour. For extra non-riders, expect to pay $20 for dinner & $5 to camp. Parking is very limited so you need to coordinate cars with Bill! All extra proceeds do go to support the club's budget... |
