Thanks for moving this. I'm theoretically moving the last weekend of the month and was temporarily disappointed I wouldn't be able to do this. I've been looking forward to this.

I'm interested in this as well. Will mark it in my calendar in case I can make it down.

Traditionally the route starts in Wicker Park, heads east to the lakefront, south to the SE corner of the city, W. to the SW corner, north to the NW corner, E to the NE corner, S down the lakefront and
back W to Wicker park, i.e. in a clockwise manner. My definitions of the corners of the city are pretty liberal.

I may try to flip the script by doing something new this year, but chances are it won't be too different to previous years. I'm open to suggestions for interesting places to sight-see, eat, etc.

Yes! I rode for the first time last year and had a blast!! I made it to the end, which was the completion of a personal goal. I've been anxiously awaiting news on this. This date is perfect for me.
