Want to ride on Sunday? Please join Anne Alt and the Chicago Cycling Club for an informal ramble around Little Italy, Pilsen and Bridgeport. We'll check out parks and gardens, unexpected architectural gems, and end up at a cafe-type place for lunch per consensus. In addition, we'll get to check out the marathon at least once.

We're meeting at Skinner Park. Enter the park from the north (Monroe) side to avoid the marathon route.

Please check out the marathon route before setting out! Go to: http://tinyurl.com/ye3nzj2 and click the link for the course map. If you're coming from the north, use Halsted or N-S streets west of it to get to Monroe. From the south, Damen is okay until Harrison. From there, I'd recommend going west to Oakley, north to Madison, then east.

Bring your lock and lunch money and join us.
