Description

Join us for this longtime Bike Winter Tradition!

We'll meet up on March 17 at the food court of the Ogilvie Center, 500 W. Madison, at 7:30 am and catch the 8:30 Metra train with our bikes to Harvard, IL. We'll arrive at 10:20, then pedal roughly 75 miles to the Great Dane brewpub downtown Madison, WI, to hang out with local cyclists. A bit of St. Patrick's Day barhopping is a possibility, after which we will crash on couches and floors provided by Madison Bike Winter folks.

Following a hearty brunch Sunday morning, we'll bicycle back to Harvard to catch the 6:35 or 8:35 pm train, arriving at Ogilvie at 8:23 or 10:23 pm.

Since space on Metra is limited to 20 bikes and I need to arrange home stays in Madison, an RSVP is strictly required. But please don't RSVP unless you definitely plan on showing up.

Hey guys; great ride!

 

I'm sorry I couldn't hang with you guys at Great Dane; my wife met me at the bar and smelled my stank, thereby suggesting I should to walk back to our hotel and shower.

 

Can't wait for the next ride...who's up for Milwaukee? :)

Folks, I'm really, really sorry but somehow I slept through my two alarms. I probably won't make it downtown in time to board at Ogilvie, so please catch the 8:30 Union Pacific Northwest train to Harvard. I will be boarding at Clybourn. Again, very, very sorry, but looking forward to a great ride. Someone please give me a call to confirm you got this. Thanks, John 312-560-3966.
