Event Description:
Join us for a cheery outing along the amazingly lovely Lakefront Bike Path as we mosey up to the Museum campus. After a short break for bathroom pit stops, we'll cruise over to Northerly Island to scope out the flora and fauna--as well as the new art installation. Then on to Chinatown for lunch at Evergreen Restaurant (S. end of the 'strip', on E. side). Return through the IIT campus (admiring the architecture) and Bronzeville (short stop at Stephen Douglas tomb and memorial). Ride length: about 20 miles, pace approx 10-12 mph. No rider will be dropped (left behind); if you are worried about the length, you may choose to take the CTA bus home after lunch (all buses now have bike racks in front!). Ride contact: Jane (708) 303-8662 (cell)
Location:
Ride starts at the 63rd Street BEACH house (ample free parking). Meet southwest of the main building, on the sidewalk.
