I would love to but I'm working weekends at the bike shop for a couple months, I need the money while in school. I'm hoping to start doing overnighters and long trips in October or November.

Ira in Chi just did this, if you need route details you ought to PM him or email.
From what I know, he took 12/20, a common route to take there from the city. From the north side you can get on the LFP going south then jog further down to 12/20. (12/20 actually runs 1/2 mile from my house in the form of 95th street, I ought to just hop on it one day... probably best for an overnighter though)
Its a little funky in Gary, but once you're past that, its great. I especially want to take it well past the dunes sometime, it's also a very nice road when it turns into Red Arrow Highway up in Michigan.
