Description

A relaxed ride along the Lakefront Path and Burnham Greenway to South Chicago, Hegewisch and across the border to Indiana.

* Vast amounts of delicious food prepared by little old ladies

* Veg friendly

* Polka music and dancing

* Mr. Pierogi and the Piroguettes

* Shaded beer garden with live music

* The best festival "relief facilities" ever (air conditioned, running water and clean!)

We explore the South Side, always have rockstar parking at the festival and delude ourselves into thinking the ride balances out our food intake. Bring a lock, water, sunscreen and some cash for starchy delights.

About 18 miles from Buckingham Fountain to Whiting. We take it easy, get there around 11:30am or so and leave by 4pm.
