It's about a decade since I was bopping around the far N burbs every weekend . . . I need to get to a relative's on Sunday. Trying to figure out how scary it is between the Metra station and the destination. Looks to me like Rockland and Waukeegan are unavoidable, and as I recall both kind of suck?

This is a normal training area ride for me, waukegan is not so bad, 176 is more congested, less of a shoulder
Good to know, thanks!
I'm actually toying with the idea of avoiding Metra Bike Roulette entirely and hiking it.
There's not some secret bike blackout this coming weekend, is there?
If it's not on the map, please use www.google.com/mapmaker to mark it so that others using the maps can see it.
Thanks!

Route 176 actually has a bike path along side if it on the south side of the road. No avoiding Waukegan Road though.

Many thanks.
What would folks gauge the likelihood that I could be turned away with the bike?
I'd be traveling outward around 3:30, and be heading back . . . dunno, I guess 10:38 is my only option (ouch) . . .
Looks like the big act at Ravinia is Rufus Wainright with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at 5 PM.
