clp replied to Beau Sessions's discussion 'Getting to Palos Forest Preserve by bike/bus/train'"...you are probobly more serious about the bike you ride which usually means tires not suitable for the road. The four sets that I use I would never take on asphalt or concrete...

Beau Sessions replied to Beau Sessions's discussion 'Getting to Palos Forest Preserve by bike/bus/train'"Thanks everyone. Some good ideas. Phil, I'm right with you on the Zip Car idea and Anne, thank you for the CTA/PACE idea. When you use the trip planner, it cannot get around that HC (limited timetable train) route."
Anne Alt replied to Beau Sessions's discussion 'Getting to Palos Forest Preserve by bike/bus/train'"Good point about the bike blackout this weekend. The CTA/Pace alternative would be taking the red line to 95th, then putting your bike on the 381 Pace bus, as mentioned above - definitely a much slower ride than taking the Rock Island."
Steven Vance replied to Beau Sessions's discussion 'Getting to Palos Forest Preserve by bike/bus/train'"Don't do it this weekend on Metra - bike blackout until the first trains Monday morning (because of Lollapalooza). "
