Chicago's "Bike the Drive"?
Hello,
In Chicago's "Bike the Drive" [http://bikethedrive.org/] the entire length of Lake Shore Drive is shut down to automobile traffic, and opened up to solely bicycles. I'd like to attend this event with my recumbent trike. There definitely will be some recumbent bikes there. I'm interested in knowing if there will be other tricyclists there (upright or recumbent). Have any of you folks been to this event? Or, at least, something similar? Thanks, Cullen Appleton, WI |

Have any of you folks been to this event? Or, at least, something similar? I did it once, and that was enough. Too crowded for my taste, even if it is fun to ride on LSD. There will be a fair amount of bents, trikes, tall bikes, and other freakshow material, and usually a few rollerbladers to mess things up a bit. Me, I'm saving my riding for Door County, the very next week. I'll wave when we drive by :-) -- Kristian Zoerhoff I'm very interested in learning more about that Door County ride. What's it called? Do you have a website? Thanks, Cullen |
