Rides

Wednesday, March 13, Moderate, Chandler to Country...
Author Last Post

Departing Chandler at 8:30 am.

The weather looks very nice for a ride, with temps in the mid 50s, partly sunny skies and negligible wind. Let's stop at the Country Kitchen restaurant in Highland Park (Thanks to Scott Schaedel for reminding me of this restaurant as I used to lunch there with my team when I was drilling at Ft Sheridan with the US Army Reserve).

We'll view (or attempt to view) the summer studio of Jens Jense's Summer cottage called The Clearing which is nearby on Dean Steet.

Distance around 24-25 miles RT. I need to be back to Evanston by 12;45 since I have tickets for the Orchard Show at the CBG for 2PM.

Please give me a courtesy reply if you plan to ride...Thx
