I'm a biker, but on the weekends in the summer, I like to inline skate from my house (near Clark and Wilson) to Navy Pier and back. I guess that's my quasi "cross-training." Anyway, the reason I write is that one time I was skating in the bike lane on Wilson and a cop in a cop car started barking at me in his microphone telling me to skate on the sidewalk. What's your experience with that? Do you ever get static from the cops for skating in the street?

Hey...Thanks for writing back! I did see you, strangely enough. You blew by my group and you were long gone before I had a chance to say "hi." You're quite a good skater, I must say. I can go pretty fast I suppose, but I definitely don't skate gracefully like you do.

Anyway, I hope you had a good time at Critical Mass. We couldn't have asked for nicer weather.

Talk soon!

Thanks for being willing to step up and help out with the mass. So many people aren't willing to do anything more than just complain. The big thing that I can suggest is have a friend with you if you're at the front. It's kind of boring. I may be at the July ride, but I haven't finalized my plans (I'm going on a week long bike ride that week and haven't decided on when I'll leave).

Hopefully the meeting will result in a group of people who try to make the ride a success.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Good to see you! This is the site I was trying to remember the name of:

http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/

It's good for getting a quick and dirty outline of a potential route.

Hey Barbra! Just wanted to say that you are doing a great job with staying positive about Critical Mass. I know that it must really suck to have someone being so negative about something you've worked hard to create. Especially since they aren't offering a counter suggestion. I have a good feeling about the ride and am looking forward to being upfront with you. Hopefully we can get a few more in the front with us and have our own party. You are awesome!
