Rides for Saturday & Sunday 5/3 &5/4/2014

Saturday:
Let's meet at Panera Bread in Wilmette and be ready to ride at 08:00 AM. We will do the usual cemetery loop with a short stop at Panera on Rt. 176. Back before noon.
Sunday:
Few of us are going to join Rene Boer for the ride to Lake Geneva. It will be a remote start from Union, IL, so plan accordingly (about 70 minutes drive from Wilmette). Let me know if you are going to that one, so I can look for you. Rene will leave at the listed start time, so plan to be there ahead of time. They do not wait for people who come late and I really do not know the way to Lake Geneva from there. Bellow are the details from Rene.
For those wanting to stay local on Sunday, there will be regular VF Show and Go from Panera Bread in Wilmette at 09:00 AM.
If the weather is bad I will post a cancellation by 7AM on both days.

"We have our annual "get in gear" ride to Lake Geneva, WI scheduled for Sunday, May 4th departing the Wild West Steakhouse in Union, IL at 9am. In years past we've forded streams, basked in the sun and fought gale force winds ... who only knows what Sunday's weather will bring ... dress appropriately. 
Depending on the turnout we may have more than one group ... faster/slower. We'll stop for approximately 5 minutes in Woodstock enroute to Lake Geneva where we'll stop for 20 minutes for a quick lunch .. Jimmy John's or Starbucks. The return trip has no stops. Ensure that you have adequate liquids and snacks with you for the return trip. Total distance is 68 miles. This is a "social ride" NOT a hammer fest ... a good opportunity to meet fellow Sub5 riders and have some fun. We'll enjoy a beer(s) after the ride.
