Fox River Bike Trail suggestions for a ride this Sunday?

The Air & Water Show is this weekend which means that any bike riding on the lakefront trail south of Fullerton means navigating visitors walking 7-abreast along the path or just standing on the path and gawking skyward. Time to get out of Dodge for a Sunday bike ride.

Anyone have a suggested 20-30 mile bike loop along the Fox River Bike Trail? Scenic (photogenic), staying along the river and asphalt are good considerations. Start in Aurora near Interstate 88? Interstate 90 near West Dundee?

I promise to share photos.

Nice pictures. I'm guessing that new bridge is where the trail was rerouted just south of Crystal Lake. Haven't been up that way yet this year.

Great photos, of course.  Was it really as empty as it looks on such a beautiful day?  Might have to get myself out of the city for such a nice trail.

It was pretty empty, although I started around 3:00 which could explain the people-less ride. Chipmunks galore, though.
