Kozy's Cyclery bicycle shop is passionate about Slow Roll Chicago's mission to provide a practical opportunity for more people to take up the activity of cycling while also improving their health and their communities. 2014 Launch Partner Kozy's Cyclery is proud to offer the Slow Roll Chicago family 20% off any one accessory/clothing/helmet item when you purchase a Slow Roll Chicago shirt from Kozy's at one of their retail stores. This special offer only applies to non-discounted items and is only valid at the time you purchase a Slow Roll Chicago shirt.
This time, we ride for peace on Chicago streets...

We have more good news to share about your Slow Roll Chicago bicycle movement. Slow Roll Chicago has been selected as a finalist in a $1,000 grant competition hosted by the Bold Urban Renaissance Network and Burners Without Borders. The four finalists have all been invited to present at the Chicago Community Grant Salon scheduled for Wednesday, November 12 at 6:30pm in the South Loop (full street address available upon request).
Learn more about this grant opportunity HERE & HERE.
We will love for all of you to attend and please invite your family, friends, and network to attend as well. It is critical that we have our supporters in attendance, as everyone in attendance will have the opportunity to vote for the winner of the competition. In the event we are fortunate enough to win the competition, we will use this $1,000 grant to purchase some needed communications, safety, and bike repair/maintenance equipment. We will also use this funding on community outreach for our 2015 ride season next year.
Please do RSVP and ask your network to RSVP also via this Facebook Event Post. Go ahead and hit that invite button to share this incredible opportunity with your friends, family, and network on Facebook to attend as well.Should you not have a Facebook account and would like to RSVP, simply send us a message here on Tumblr or contact us on Twitter.

* Work gloves—breathable w grippy palms works best with tools
* Work shoes or boots - gonna get dirty
* Water

Directions: Big Marsh entrance is on Stony Island, between Doty and Torrence and 103rd and 122nd, east of I-94 and Lake Calumet. Google knows it as Park No. 564. From eastbound 103rd St., turn right at the light at Doty east of the expressway, and keep right; turn left (south) on Stony Island at the stop sign. About 1 mile down you'll see the gate on the left.
