NW IN to Chicago?
Hey all,
Anyone here ride from NW IN to downtown? I want to go up there this summer, and would love to ride (have you seen the price of gas!
) ..... I'm a relative noob (rode back and forth to PUC last summer), but after a month of riding, I think I could make it (I live in Highland).
Anyone up for a try? Just to say you did it? I'm guessing there are a bunch of you who do it.....

Genetics have failed me
I commuted from Munster to downtown Chicago last year quite often. It's a neat trip and i'm planning on doing it again this year when the weather gets nicer.
Here is my route, mostly bike path:

Under no circumstances go through Rainbow Park on your commute home in the evening. Bad, bad, bad neighbourhood. I made that mistake once. Good thing I got out alive, never again.
Drop me a PM if you want to go out for some riding as I also have a few routes to cedar lake.
