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.

Duty calls. I now have to work today. Have a good ride!

Right, right. Sounds good.

If this turns out to be a zoo, there is another pretty good brewery, Lunar that is also in Villa Park not far from the trail or More Brewing. I guess we'll play it by ear and hope for the best. See you tomorrow.

One more thing...are you sure More Brewing is going to be open when we arrive on Saturday? I ride out that way for work each day. It typically takes about 1 hour. Even if it took us 2, we would be arriving at 11am. I don't think it will take us that long.

Thanks for the follow up. I'm closer to the eastern trial head. See you Saturday.

Serge,
I think I can make the ride on Saturday. The route shows a starting point near Belmont Harbor but, you mentioned a meet up at the east end of the 606 at 9am. Please confirm the meet up destination and time.

Great ride. Only 94 miles for me. But then, I cheated.
