Wed Moderate Ride resumes; May 5th, 8:30 Chandler
Joanne Davis

Hello to all riders...it's been along time! Welcome Spring!

The weather looks to be cool on Wed (in the upper 40s to low 50s) with wind from the North up to 17 mph).

(I wanted to do a spectacular ride, but that will have to wait. for another day when wind and temperature cooperate).


So, we'll take a loop route heading westerly and then north to view the Great Blue Heron rookery (by New Trier HS), then take the North Branch Trail over to the Chicago Botanic Garden. You can either bring a snack or buy something at the Cafe (credit cards only) and we'll probably eat outdoors of the cafe area. Short visit to the bulb garden. Mask required in the Info Center Building.


Pace: moderate 13-14 mph rolling

Meeting: Chandler 8:30 May 7
