2010 route posted: http://www.rideofsilence.org/chicago/index_2010.html
Open to route modifications if it can be done safely and without adding more mileage.
The only new bike pending within city limits is for Pershing.
No urgency for the ROS.
I will announce a few dates for fixing up the bikes on the ROS route.
Is last year's route posted somewhere?
Has anyone seen Jepson's bike lately? I got a few disturbing calls from that alderman's office about it.
Anyone interested in collaborating on getting some maintenance rides and build days set up?
Time to start getting some GB-related events in the calendar.
A maintenance ride or two, a build day or two.
Ideally at least a few weeks after the Chicago Cycle Swap (2/26).
Sundays tend to work best for me.
