People with urban riding or CCM experience might want to help keep the riders together, which is always helpful. This year the ward has changed shape and includes both West Loop and South Loop areas in addition to Chinatown, Pilsen and Near West Side. They had the route published at one point - goes E then N on Halsted, to Adams at Greektown, then back down Racine to Blue Island and back on 16th to the park. Misses S Loop and Chinatown this year in favor of the new areas.
