Description

Biking the Burbs for Beers bike ride is set for Saturday August 30, 10:30 am. Details below-

  • The ride will depart from downtown Flossmoor at 10:30 riding through Flossmoor Park and parts of old Flossmoor to the north side of the Heights to Dino' Food and Liquors for beer and Bloody Mary's
  • From Dino's we will ride south through some of the great old neighborhoods of Chicago Heights to Paulie's Pub in South Chicago Heights.
  • A nice ride further south through portions Sauk Trail Woods bike path we will arrive at J' Martin's Tap in Steger. Bob E. Lee and his band will be on hand to play some classic rock tunes. The band does not charge a fee for playing, however, tips will be welcomed and we will pass the hat. You are sure to enjoy as it is probably the highlight of the trip. Martin's famous fruit salad will also be on hand to enjoy and give you an energy boost.
  • From Martin's we will head north to 3 Star Tavern on "The Hill" in Chigago Heights for a buffet lunch and more refreshments. Lunch will cost $7.00 and will include-
    • Italian sausage and peppers
    • Roast chicken
    • Pasta salad
    • House salad
    • Green beans
    • Roast butter and garlic potatoes
         While you're at 3 Star you can go two doors down and have your picture taken in front of the boyhood home of                  former Pheonix Suns owner and director of USA basketball Jerry Colangelo. You can also get a classic "Shy                  'Heights" tee shirt for $10 (available in white or black.)
  • After lunch we will head north through the Heights and back to Flossmoor- ETA 4:30.
There will be a limited amount of BBB IV T shirts available the day of the ride- price TBD.
If you haven't been on the ride before and are not an avid cyclist don't worry, we set a very casual pace and try and enjoy the ride. Almost all of the riders that have been on the ride in the past are very casual riders. For some it's the only time all year they are on a bicycle so it is not a very demanding ride.
All of the establishments we visit are classic, old school places. Its a great ride and a great time.
The ride is open to all so invite your friends.
As always we encourage moderate drinking and heavy tipping.
