Jeremy replied to Lee Diamond's discussion 'Stolen Bike Registry - do this when your bike gets stolen'"Thanks man. Today's motto is "it could have been worse."

The night becomes our filter, and we will focus our stops on buildings and locations that look particularly wonderful at night. The tour is longer than the free mini-tour held two days earlier, and riders that…See More

Michael M said… - All of the homes (except 1 or 2) S. Millard between Ogden and 16th have Romanesque pillars on their porches and almost all have extensive carved and/or molded decorations on their greystone fronts. I've seen similar homes here and there in Lawndale and other parts of the South side, but I haven't noticed so many very similar homes in a two block stretch anywhere else on the south side.

Natalie said… - Hi, Lee! I didn't even see your wall post till now. Thanks for saying hey. Jerry has been limiting his cycling distances since he was hobbled by chronic tendinitis in his hamstring, and I've been racing this summer, so we haven't had time to get to any of the neighborhood tours. Ironically enough, once the weather gets crappy we'll probably start getting out more on organized rides.
