Join us for this longtime Bike Winter Tradition!
We'll meet up on March 17 at the food court of the Ogilvie Center, 500 W. Madison, at 7:30 am and catch the 8:30 Metra train with our bikes to Harvard, IL. We'll arrive at 10:20, then pedal roughly 75 miles to the Great Dane brewpub downtown Madison, WI, to hang out with local cyclists. A bit of St. Patrick's Day barhopping is a possibility, after which we will crash on couches and floors provided by Madison Bike Winter folks.
Following a hearty brunch Sunday morning, we'll bicycle back to Harvard to catch the 6:35 or 8:35 pm train, arriving at Ogilvie at 8:23 or 10:23 pm.
Since space on Metra is limited to 20 bikes and I need to arrange home stays in Madison, an RSVP is strictly required. But please don't RSVP unless you definitely plan on showing up.

Good article, John!

Peter's article...
Any more photos from the ride? I need to turn in my article tomorrow morning. Thanks!
Maybe it was Tony?
Tony, if you're out there, and you haven't sold my fender for beer money, let's meet.
I'm doing a write-up for the trip for Newcity magazine. Please let me know if any of you do NOT want the pictures you posted here published. Thanks!
I think Tony took the fender, no?
ALSO, HERE BE SOME PICS Y'ALL. Threw 'em on the facespace.
I can't remember which one of you had my rear fender. I'm totally bad putting faces to names, but if you want to give me a shout so we can meet up, please do.
