Speed isn't really possible below the water stop in Rogers Park unless all the intersections are going to be closed off. I figure it'll be about six hours for the whole route, though that doesn't include many stops. The Sunday forecast keeps getting hotter, too.

I am going to have to keep up some pace because I told Julie I would try to be there to help no later than 1:00. Duppie, I don't think I can spend a lot of time visiting at the water stop!
But even for the Chainlink, I am not going to kill myself!

Looks like chainlink will have a table sunday. We could use some friendly folks to help talk about Chainlink at our table. If you can help anytime between 10-2 please let me know here or at volunteers at thechainlink.org.

I am planning on the 62, although I am going to start at North and State rather than ride all the way down to UIC. I am almost certain that Tricolor, Mike, and Jaik are planning the 62.

Serge, I would be delighted to have the company of all of you. It is just that I see your posts about those brewing place rides, and it seems like you just go fast! Will Mattheis have his radio? Maybe I could pedal faster with a radio.
If Mike is going to pull the fox, that might slow him down!

Nice bike, Mike! Will be watching for it.

I'll be on the 62, also riding a LHT...

Duppie--will definitely be stopping and I will find you and admit knowing you. :-) Tricolor, I knew the LHT would not be fast, but it is faster than my other bike! And I seldom try to kill myself. I assume the green and red bar tape is still on your bike, too?

I'll be at the start by 6:30. The LHT is not the fastest bike in the world unless you really try to kill yourself. I've got a chainlink sticker around somewhere but if I can't find it look for the silver bike with Recyclery and Citadelle de Quebec stickers on the rear fender.
I have no idea what I'm going to wear until the weather's certain.

Lisa, Serge, and everyone else that will admit to knowing me.
If you do the 35 or 62 mile route stop and say hi at the Rogers Park Water Stop. I'll be working the rest stop.
Lisa, look forward to see your LHT.
