Waving from the outer 'burbs of Chicagoland

Hey, everyone!

I've become addicted to riding my bike. If I can't ride I get cranky.

I've been trying to find farther and farther places to go on my bike and the trails around me are nothing short of amazing.

I'm looking forward to reading these forums, and hoping to find some folks that ride as obsessively as I do!

I'm a middle-aged woman with a teen daughter and we're living with my sister; and I'm currently unemployed .

Cheers!

Welcome to Bike Forums. Most of us are "obsessed" about riding.
If you're 50 year of age or older, stop by the 50+ forum and say hello. Lots of men and ladies there. You'll find me there. I'm 71.

I haven't yet! I've done a lot of the Fox River and I'm targeting Salt Creek. I'll at Des Plaines River maps! Thank you!
