Hi,
Does anyone know of any rides outside of town but within 2 hrs of Chicago going on this coming weekend? Mike's list doesn't have any ride that's close.
Thanks!

Do they have to -start- outside of town? This one seems to fill the bill perfectly:

Touring Ride: Conway Farms Ride

START: Clock Tower at Waveland and Lake Shore Dr. (3700N)

8:00 AM

70 miles, 15 to 20 mph
Come along on the Conway Farms Ride on Sunday. Going up to Conway, we'll pass through the secret passage from Golf to Glenview and the Glen. The Glen is the new development on the land formerly known as the Glenview Naval Air Station. Of course, we'll stop in the Glen for coffee and other fine beverages, at the Old School Forest Preserve, then ride through the Conway Farms residential development and return to Chicago via Fort Sheridan and the usual Sheridan Road route with a stop in downtown Highland Park for a light lunch, if desired and of course coffee, the fuel of life. If you look carefully, you might even find a farm along the ride. Please note that there will be a few stretches with a bit of traffic. Email a friend...
