Mission of Berwyn (folk) rock and roll ride

Join us for a near-west suburban safari!

Depart from Palmer Square Park; stop for a pint at a home brewer’s apartment in Garfield Park; dinner at the famous Depot American Diner, 5840 W. Roosevelt; head to Berwyn’s Friendly Tap, 6633 W. Roosevelt, where my folk rock band Ordinary People performs with the Last Kind Words; ride back to the city together at the end of the night or catch the nearby Blue Line.

If anyone is interested in leaving from Daley Plaza at 5:30 pm to Logan Square for the start of the ride, let me know and I'll be happy to ride with you.
