Rides For The New Year Weekend

Felix will lead rides on Friday, Saturday, and Monday.

1/2/12 Update - Monday ride cancelled. Slippery roads and 5 degree wind chill.

We'll join Cliff Hoffman's ride on Sunday - 10:00 am

1/1/12 Update - New Year's Day Ride Cancelled. Nasty day even for the Polar Bears.

On Friday we will meet at 9:00 AM at Panera Bread in Wilmette and head to Lake Bluff.
On Saturday we will meet at Panera Bread in Wilmette at 8:00 AM and go to Lake Bluff one more time.
On Monday we will meet at 9:00 AM at Panera Bread in Wilmette

The Friday, Saturday, and Monday rides will be at our standard pace

The New Year's Day ride will be at a 14 mph pace on the trip down to Chicago and at our standard pace on the way home. Details below. This ride was a lot of fun last year. Highly recommended.

On New Years Day we will meet at Panera’s in Wilmette at 10:00 am and being a holiday you will be able to park along the tracks free of charge. We’ll try and work our way to the Lakeshore path and down to North Ave. beach where we will witness the Polar Bears taking their plunge into Lake Michigan. We will then proceed to Tiparos Thai Restaurant for lunch and talk about how much saner we are because we just ride our bikes in winter. If you are going to participate in the Polar Bear plunge please remember to bring your own suit and towel as the City of Chicago prohibits nude bathing in public and the club does not furnish towels for this ride
