Description

No, this isn't about admitting to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

It's about trying to ride to Three Floyds every month this year.

We'll take the lakefront trail south from the Clock Tower. If you don't want to start with us, you can join up anywhere along the trail. Just let me know where so we can look for you.

New beer since last time: Tiberian Inquisitor, a Belgian-style ale aged for one year in French oak.

45 miles if you take the Metra back, 70 if you ride both ways. 16-19 mph.

@Casey, i felt brutalized, too. i couldn't believe it when i got home and it was listed as only 16 mph. i see now it says there were gusts to 32, that was more what it felt like. i was glad howard and i were together.

it was also an adventure (in a good way, it turned out) getting around the construction on torrence.

The smart ones of us took the train back.

Thanks for organizing Robert!  I hope you guys ended up taking the train back, that headwind going home was brutal.
