Comments from the article on the 2018 WHAM Ride.

"I think it's a fun idea to start at midnight, you get a different crowd."

"It's a more fun ride than a serious bike ride."

"It's something we can get together and bond."

The 2018 WHAM Ride had around 800 riders last night.

"It's neat to see different groupings of people."

"Everyone's just happy to be out here."

Comment by Tom A.K. on August 11, 2018 at 3:30pm: The only remaining 2018 metropolitan 'LATE' night Ride event in the the early AM until sunrise has begun. The WHAM event has begun at 9pm with entertainment and ride registration for $25 till 11:30. Get on over to N.W. Indiana if you can. Reminder; Chicago no longer has their LATE Ride which would have likely been scheduled at this time also. So get out there and ride through this lovely summer night over in Hammond Ind. I'll see ya' there next year hopefully cuz' I'm (dang it!) recovering from a cycling spill. I really hope my friends, and all attending enjoy the ride! I'll just lie here and take my meds ! :'(

Comment by Tom A.K. on August 10, 2018 at 6:20am: I will not be able to attend this year's WHAM Ride due to a cycling spill during a Wednesday early AM mileage training ride in preparation for Sunday's early AM event. I injured my leg and ended up with subsequent medical issues. Hopefully and Godwilling, I am on the road to full recovery and being able to return to cycling once again. Thanks to all who are assisting and supporting. Hope to see you all down the road soon ! . . .
