Bridgeport and Armour Square Research Ride 4/Pre-Ride at McGuane Park

October 20, 2010 from 6pm to 8pm
This is the pre-ride for the Tour of Bridgeport and Armour Square on Saturday October 23, 2010. The pre-rides are shorter than normal rides as we do not do the individual stops, we ride the route and determine if there are necessary detours, best place for group stops in the event of unexpected changes to the route, construction, etc. The primary importance is being able to have a plan for anything unexpected before the day of the ride.Attendees of research rides can earn $5 off the price of…See More

The kind of riding I do:
Recreational, Exercise, Distance, Around Town, My business involves biking
About me:
I'm a designer and photographer by trade. I got interested in cycling a few years back when some friends got me on board for the MS150 - a charity ride for MS research. Then a couple years later a couple friends decided to start a bike company and asked me to help them out with design and photography. The three of us agreed that there was a scarcity of cycling apparel out there that we'd actually want to wear, aside from Rapha stuff, which none of us could really afford. So we started Faction Cycling Co. here in Chicago to try to fill that void and have a good time doing it. In the process I've gotten more serious about making the bike a part of my everyday life. For now that means riding on a trainer through the winter months (I'm a whuss about winter riding ;) but it gives me a chance to get in better shape for spring rides and catch up on my Netflix queue at the same time.
