Next time you're pedaling from downtown to Wicker Park or Lincoln Park, you might try a stealth route I recently stumbled upon, hugging the east side of the Chicago River, traveling underneath the old Montgomery Ward complex and even through the Chicago Avenue bridge house, where you can see the huge yellow gears of the lifting mechanism. A virtual tour of the route is up on Grid Chicago:

Keep moving forward,

Just got back from the route...found out about the stairs and where I needed to go.
I have some video footage of my ride that I'll post as soon as I eat and edit. :)
Just rode this route, It would be too crowded for a large mass ride, unless the group is the size of a MM ride.
Rode it tonight-- good stuff :-)
