<p>My idea is to meet downtown at Daley Plaza at around 6 and then head over to the lakefront so we can gather as many people and as many Divvies as possible. We can go around a few neighborhoods N & S and stop in at Divvy Stations to switch bikes with each other. Let's hope there's still snow!</p>

<p>I'm curious about the <a href="http://www.hostelshoppe.com/recumbent_rally.php" target="_blank">Midwest Recumbent Rally</a> and wondered if any of you have tried it in past years. If so, was a fun, well run event? What are the riding conditions in that area? Is anyone planning to go this year?</p>

<p>This event is part <strong>bike ride</strong>, <strong>part rally</strong>. On Saturday morning, <strong>cyclists from all over Chicago will converge on Daley Plaza.</strong> They will <strong>leave Daley Plaza at 11 a.m. to caravan to Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood and meet up with rally goers near the Fisk Coal-Fired Power Plant.</strong> Near Fisk, we will <strong>rally at 12:30 p.m. and then march/ride to call for an end to the toxic pollution from the Fisk and Crawford coal plants and current plans for dirty energy projects</strong> (Such as the <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2011/aug/23/tar-sands-keystone-xl-climate" target="_blank">Keystone XL Tar Sands Pipeline</a>) and demand a swift transition to clean energy and jobs. </p>
<p><strong>Moving Planet is a worldwide rally to demand solutions to the climate crisis</strong>. Chicago will be one of thousands of cities in hundreds countries participating!</p>

<p><em>As cyclists we are already doing our part for the environment, but our impact is summarily negated by coal plants and other dirty energy. If we hope to mitigate climate change, protect the air (we love to be outside in) and the health of our city we must take a stand. I hope to see all 6000 of you on Saturday! </em></p>
