Description

British Bicycles of Chicago is hosting the 2010 Bonfire Tweed Ride. Don your best woollies, strap some wood to your bicycle rack and join us.

The route will be from Ravenswood to Bubbly Creek with stops along the way at a relaxed pace. We will take in parks, industrial and residential areas as darkness falls. The finale will be the lighting of a bonfire!

Warm yourself by the glow of the fire, after riding in style with friends old and new. Cue sheets, spoke cards and prizes will be provided.

Comment by Holly on November 6, 2010 at 5:13pm: Johnnysporto--I'm thinking of meeting up with the ride leaving from Logan Square in an hour or so. (It's 5:00 now.) I don't know where they are, but I do have a contact # for you if you want to use that. Msg me on the chainlink if you want John's number to get their location.

Comment by johnnysporto on November 6, 2010 at 1:57pm: Bummer: I had a problem with my bike and just got it fixed. The next problem is I have no idea where you guys are. There's no contact info, so I can't call anyone to find out where to meet you. There's no list of bars, so I can figure out where you guys are/will be. And there's no list of stops or sights. Yet one less way I can find you all.

So, looks I don't get to go. Unless someone checks this and decides to post a phone number to someone I can call.

Next time please publish more information so those who can't join the start, can find you guys and meet up.

Have fun today.

Comment by John on November 6, 2010 at 10:28am: Definitely need to get some corporate sponsors next year. This would be fun with a capital F:

Comment by John on November 5, 2010 at 11:18pm: 1pm gathering; likely 1:30 departure.

Comment by Eric H on November 5, 2010 at 7:13pm: Weather's looking reasonably pleasant for the season, despite a brisk 16 km/h headwind.

Are we aiming for a 1 PM departure? Or 1 PM gathering?

Comment by Caitlin on November 5, 2010 at 1:02pm: Garth - Printing off now and will bring tomorrow.

Comment by globalguy on November 5, 2010 at 12:13pm: Since I am currently discommoded with the Masons in Lakeview, would anyone be willing to print out the Guy Fawkes' poem here? And then would you bring them for the bonfire tomorrow? I think we can expect perhaps 40 or so ladies and gents. Thanks!
