Okay, so there is a LOT of road construction in Chicago, and I temporarily lost my directions on the way down so I ended up at the
Univ. of Ill - Chicago instead of Univ. of Chicago (who knew they BOTH existed??). Anyway, here's a few teasers. Good stuff to follow.

The bathrooms are to the left ... downstairs. WOW !!

The pics make UofC look a lot nicer than it ever was when I raced there. - TF

Nice pics. I imagine they just love it when you lean your bike up against their 150-year-old irreplaceable wood paneling. :D :D

I think you got a pic of me in the 4's. I'm the South Chicago Wheelman with the white arm warmers. South Chicago Wheelmen are easy to spot, they have the ugliest jerseys in the bunch.

I seemed like a nice place to ride ... the trail at the lake front on the south side looks more bike friendly than the north ... but it sure was HE _ _ driving down there!!

Are the results of the Monsters of the Midway posted somewhere?

I asked an official at the end of the day if they were posted somewhere and was told to look "at registration" which was already gone.

Are they on line somewhere? Nothing on their webpage and I'm not seeing it on the ABR page.
