Hi, I would love to. I have many of them recorded with a Garmin. We do one or two Three Floyds rides a year if we can...very fun. We typically ride the "Rest Stop Loop" on the weekends, which we start from Yankee woods, go to the Manhattan/Monee rest stop, continue to Frankfort then back. We have had many variations, all of which were nice on the couple of dozen times we rode this. It is neat, you start seeing woods, then go to corn fields and horses, to towns and back. You were right about last year's TFR...wow did it rain, and the part of town where it is in was evacuated. The trip did go on though. Take care.

When the weather warms up a bit, how about posting some of the weekend rides to this forum? I've done some riding out that way, and it's VERY different from riding in the city. Kinda bizarre in a cool way being able to ride for miles without traffic or having to stop at a zillion lights. Wouldn't mind doing a Three Floyds ride, too. It was a bummer that the planned Beverly Club ride there was during the September when many of the roads between here and there were underwaters.
Hi, I live in 60655 which is the Beverly/Morgan Park area of Chicago. I ride club in this area, as will as in Evergreen Park, Oak Lawn etc., but do most of my riding weekends on some great South Side loops out to Monee, Manhattan, and such. Some of us from our local club tried these loops out at the end of last year, and we are really hooked. The loops run between 30 ane 65 miles. Join us if you can. They are road routes, but have very little traffic since it is out in the sticks. Some Plank Trail connection is done as well.
