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.

The ride sounds good Serge but I do think we should try to include Lake Bluff. Especially since we missed it on my ride last month due to train schedule.

July 20 to Kenosha: Good chance I can join this ride since you'll all be riding up through Lake Bluff where I live. Meet at Lake Bluff Brewing? Yes, it's small, but great beer and some outside seating. Metra home times are 6:49pm and 10:20pm (leaving Kenosha). 20 bikes per train.

And yes, tandems are fine on UP lines, as long as you pretend to know what you are doing.

So from Kenosha, we'd be taking metra back into town? I might be able to get Mrs Duppie to come along on our tandem.

Doug left me a voicemail the day after the trip to Lake Geneva. He thanked everyone for "putting up with him."

Whatever happened to Doug anyways?

I'm down for a lazy July 5th ride. I might be down for the Kenosha ride. July 20th is my birthday so we will see.

I just noticed that this group existed. Do I need a Long Haul Trucker for these rides? I'm afraid my upright hybrid will get uncomfortable on long rides.
