Description

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.

Anyone interested in meeting up at the Handlebar, 2311 W. North Ave., this Tuesday at 9 pm for a brew and to go over the route?

David and Ash convinced me to give it a shot. I look forward to my first  long ride.

FYI, lodging is lined up for us in Madison. If it's handy to bring a sleeping bag and/or ground pad, that would be a good idea. Otherwise couch & futon space and/or bedding should be available.

Well guys, it looks like preliminary weather reports show some rain. Thankfully, the high that day looks to be in the low 60s.

 

Bust out those fenders!

Looks like there will be an election soon where Scott Walker is one of the candidates.  It does not make much sense to me that someone recalled can re-run for the same position.  Perhaps I am missing something.

The sign in the photograph above makes me nostalgic for the days when someone other than Scott Walker was governor of Wisconsin...
