Description

Barry-Roubaix, Gravel Metric, Trans-Iowa. These all sound like a blast, but they're far away. Come on a ride with us and explore some gnarly gravel here in Chicago. We'll meet in Logan Square and ride at a moderate pace. Route is yet to be determined, as ground cover changes, but most likely will involve abandoned rail lines and bike paths. Bring some snack food and a bike made for hard riding- touring bike, cyclocross, or mountain bike will be fine.

March 17 Gravel Road Ride

I mapped out our route up to the turn-around. We followed the same route south, turning west at Diversy Ave. and riding back to Logan Square.

This will be a monthly event, hopefully growing into a biweekly or weekly event by next spring. I will make a google map of the route and put it on our website son. trouble is, we were not on roads, so mapping it on avail maps is hard. better to ride it, or stop by the shop to have it shown on the bikemap.
