Description

We will walk a block from the meeting point, choose a Divvy bicycle and ride first on the 606 rail trail, check out Ellen Gates Starr High School where the Albany Park Theater Project is presenting a unique production where the actors and audience wander through the building, check out the Private Bank Fire Pitch (what is that anyway?) at 3626 N. Talman,  pass in front of the Mayor's house and end at the Albany Park World Festival described in the link below.  The meandering distance to the Festival in Albany Park is 13.6 miles in 2:20 hrs.  We will return to Lincoln Park on a more direct and shorter route.  Those who do not want to join us can take the Brown Line which starts right there at Kimball and Lawrence.  We will check our Divvy Bikes in every half hour as usual.  Everyone must wear a helmet and I have some to lend.

If you are not a member of Divvy, bring credit card to pay for rental...$9.95

Bring $5.00 if you wish to attend the Albany Park World Fest and bring your Divvy Key Fob if you are an annual member

Please RSVP so I can suggest to Divvy that they have enough bicycles for us at Webster and Sheffield on that date

thanks for sharing my post on Facebook, but Brenda is the only new signup.  C'mon.  Join us.  I've done this ride 3 times in planning and every time I look around I see new and interesting things to show you.

I have spare helmets for those who need them to borrow.  Even my dog wears a helmet when she rides, but unfortunately she can't ride on a Divvy.  It sounds like a fantastic event and we will also be riding through a carnival outside the Ellen Gates Starr High School and get an introduction to the Private Bank Fire Pitch when we arrive.  We'll ride past both the Mayor's house and Blago's former dwelling. Here's a link to the Albany Park World Fest.  http://www.chicagoevents.com/event.cfm?eid=298
