Hot Dog Tour 9-24-11

I have been leading this ride for the Evanston Bike Club for the past dozen years or so.  In past years we have gone to the Vienna Factory and Hot Dougs.  The lines at the latter are simply too long  for a bike ride.   The Chandler Center is between Central and Lincoln by the Central L stop in Evanston. You can also meet us en route. The ride will be about 30 miles at a slow to moderate pace. My e-mail is dbarish1957@yahoo.com. The blurb at www. Evanstonbikeclub.org reads:

 

Our stops will be Murphy's Red Hots at 1211 Belmont; Superdawg; Poochies. I
replaced Hot Dougs because the line is normally too long. I added Murphy's because
it had the highest rating in an on- line hot dog website I had visited.
www.hotdogchicagostyle.com/ I wanted to give it a try. It should be an old
fashioned Chicago hot dog similar to Poochies (which had the 4th highest
rating) They did not love Superdawg but I think the ambiance makes the visit
worthwhile and I still like their dog. We will see. The ride is 29.9 miles with
the new configuration. Murphy's does not open until 11 so we will probably
leave Chandler about 945 am The ride is scheduled for 930. I suggest you pick a
partner and share a dog at each stop. This way you will get a taste of each of
the three dogs without getting too full.


Come ride with us. This ride is always listed as a moderate ride. However, we usually have a large group and often break into moderate and slower packs. The moderate riders will get in line for us at the next stop. I will make sure that no rider (or eater for that matter) is left
behind. We will make sure that an experienced rider is leading the slower group. All riders are welcomed

When I've done this ride in the past, it's always been great fun.

 

Dave - To figure out if I can do it this year, I've got one question for you.  What's the ride date?

Ah details. Anne, I cannot believe that I left that out. I have added the date to the discussion title. It would be great to ride with you.  One of these days you will have to take me on the Major Taylor Trail.
