Chicago - Menage-a-time-trial tomorrow morning?
Steak and I are meeting up at the Starbucks across from Yojimbos at 10am to ride the upcoming Menage-A-Time-Trial. We plan on keeping a snails pace, so if you have a cup holder you can mount on your bars to hold your venti mochaccino frappaloo you should bring it.
Yeah. 10am. Starbucks by Yojimbos. Peace.

Hey! I just said the wind was brutal, I still rode in it!
If just complaining means I'm a pus$y than I'm the biggest pus$y in the world
...oh wait...I take that back.

Northbound at around 10 was pretty fierce, staying at 2/3 my normal speed out there was rough going. Southbound a little after noon you could have spread your arms and sailed.
I think I saw some people out scouting the route, anybody else pass the guy walking the tri bike rather than face the wind?

I had more problems on the north side: (1) division st apparently some happening nightlife at 1:30am, there were two seperate drunk girls who thought I was a twelve year old running away from home or something (2)How do I get from Division -> LFP? I took some ped-walkway at chicago and there were stairs and urine everywhere. Unawesome would be an understatement.
