I would like to put together a ride on either Saturday or Sunday morning 9am, for early February or March! Classic Steel Bikes recommended, to show your steel and go!

The starting point would be Devon Ave and McCormick Blvd, in Chicago at the parking lot at the beginning of the Art Park going north to Alan Arboretum. It would be a casual ride, 15 to 18mph, stop at intersections for safety. Once at the end of the bike trail, take Greenbay road to Lincoln St (Evanston) turn right going east to Ridge Ave turning left going north to Sheridan road, and on to Tower Road. The total round trip would be 21 miles, small hill to Tower Road, there is a park to rest or just turn around to go back south and return to the parking lot at Devon Ave and McCormick Blvd.
