What about a route that visits some cemetaries?

Comment by Andrew Bedno on October 22, 2013 at 8:23am

Starting to consider route options for Massoween this Friday. Here's a map with start (Daley Plaza), primary end (TheChainLink.org party) and all of Chicago's ghost bikes (for spookiness).

Now to plot a roundabout path, someone else please? http://goo.gl/maps/iofr3

I've transcribed AceMann's route to Google Maps. Garwins can snag the KML there: http://goo.gl/maps/8yNgY

I also transcribed the cues (turn-by-turns): http://massup.us/ccm/n
And the whole shebang's on massup: http://massup.us/route

It's 16 miles south to the food depository, then 16 miles back N to the blinkee art thing. We'll have to keep up a pace...

A little rain on the Friday, 8/30/13 ride, but I took a few pictures before the ride started:

Yes, MikeyMike, the Mass will take place this Friday, March 29th.

"Chicago Critical Mass starts downtown Chicago, rain or shine, the LAST FRIDAY OF EVERY MONTH at 5:30pm. If you're a wee bit late, don't sweat it (too much) as the Mass often takes a bit of time getting going.

The ride gathers in Daley Plaza around the Big Picasso."

(I think you'd be fine getting to Daley Plaza by 6:00--I don't think it ever leaves before 6.  But part of the fun is chatting & hanging around the plaza beforehand, checking out the other bikes.)

Any body pick up the Winter/Spring edition of Columbia mag and read the article on the female who was doored over 10 years ago and CCM got her back into riding?

Good stuff.

Isaac - Tom said-

Working bikes has a bicycle based generator but it's a stationary bike. I don't know if they have a moving one. I have seen the stationary one at the Green Festival.

Does anybody have a bike connected to a generator that we might be able to borrow for an event this sunday? We're trying to figure out some basic logistics mixing on-foot marches with people who show up on bike, possibly splitting off for a ride if we have enough of a critical mass. I have a very portable amp, a microphone (and a loop pedal!) that could make it possible to have a really >>moving speech>> and/or rhythmic energy to make our voices heard about the Keystone XL Pipeline and what we're calling #KXLternatives as well. Check out the facebook event and let me (isaac) know in the comments if you know about connecting to a bike generator.... thanks yall!

Thanx!  In case anyone else wants to followup on the multi-year plot, maybe best on my thread at http://www.thechainlink.org/photo/plot-of-25-months-of-chicago-crit...

There I also just published some details, and another 25 month plot of North Side Critical mass.
