Description

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

  • 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, make beach stops and always have rock star parking at the festival.  Bring a lock, water, sunscreen and cash for starchy delights.

Bring as many people as you like - we have no cap on participants.  If anyone wants to meet up along the way, send me a message with your   mobile #; I'll send updates along the way.

I RSVP-ed for myself, but is it cool if 2 of my friends joined us as well?

Would it be a waste to meet up at 111th and the greenway to ride the last couple mile in?

Comment by Adam "Cezar" Jenkins on July 5, 2012 at 8:03pm

Hmm. Looks like we're coming from opposite directions. Might just end up meeting you there. I'll see what I can do.

Certainly!  More people=more fun.   Check out the route (link above) and let's pick a place to meet.

I'm leading a ride with Folks on Spokes from the South suburbs to Perogi Fest this day. Wanna meet up?

awe, this is the last day of ragbria, Cam and I will not be able to attend, such an awesome ride, I wish the 2 didn't conflict.

Seriously, even if the event itself wasn't such a blast, the guy who does "Freebird" on accordion alone is worth the trip...
