Comment by Sarah Lessem on January 15, 2009 at 4:55pm: Anyone interested in carpooling?

Comment by Sarah on January 14, 2009 at 12:37pm: This location is not seeming to be bike friendly. The only directions on the swap site or the site for Harper College are for driving and parking lots. The only Pace bus that goes there does not run on weekends. I'm unfamiliar with the 'burbs, coming from the city. Anyone know of a good bike route from the Palatine metra? or any other good car free ways to get there?

Comment by John on January 13, 2009 at 6:53pm: Location is very bike-unfriendly. I'm holding out for the REAL Chicago bike swap, last I heard set to be held on the 18th at a park fieldhouse somewhere in the city.
