The weather looks great for north of  Evanston/Wilmette with a very low chance of rain.  Looking at the radar there is rain moving in from the west but it stays south giving the chance of rain in Evanston/Wilmette a much higher percentage.  So grab a car and a bike and come join us in beautiful Wisconsin.  See you at Bristol Woods.
