Chicagoland Beer Exploration Society
Information
Every member of the Society (CBES) should aspire to have a beer at every brewery or brewpub located in a day or two bicycle ride distance from Chicago (and, of course, within the city limits).
Naturally, preferable way of getting to is by bike, as for riding back . . . whatever is available, train, bus, horse and buggy, depending on amount of beverages consumed at the destination.
Routes on Ride with GPS, here.
On Facebook, here.

Lists of breweries and brewpubs (and other beer things): on Facebook, and on Twitter.

I rode Canal Bank Road with a friend about a month ago, just south and east of the portage woods. We rode to the quarry, snapped a few pics, and then turned around. The place was very empty on an early sunday morning.

The no trespassing probably isn't enforced but if something were to happen then the property owners might not be liable. Not sure how much truck or industrial equipment is in that area and they may or may not be looking out for bikers.

If you look at the entrance on S Cicero there are no trespassing signs.

Looks like its a private road starting at Cicero and going for a few miles. Not sure if they would have trouble with cyclists on it or not.

Ok so maybe not hauling as much as I remember but we did get a flat on the 3rd leg so not sure if that factors into your average speed.
That was one of my favorite rides from last year!

Just joined, but, I've ridden my bike to, and enjoyed beer at, brewpubs that don't be there no more.

I can't join you this weekend or the next, but maybe for the Salt Creek beer trip. Missed you at Temperance a while back.
