Chicago: Land Shark Bike Attack!!!!!
ONE MORE TIME.
(I've tried posting this 7 times today, but hopefully the hardware upgrade will have solved my problems.)
I'm trying to organize an impromptu alleycat/fun ride/rock band show this Saturday (April 8th). Last minute, so nothing heavy-duty, just for kicks. No sponsors, but entry fee gets you a spokecard and free entry into a show at Ronny's (2103 N Cali): Sharks/Fake Fictions. Ronny himself has said that he'll be roasting a pig (he did last time, too), so there's food to go along with the $2 beers and free pool.
Anyway. Raise your hands if you're interested.
Route TBD.

Maybe if you had a webcast and some virtual reality suits.
Mmm, pigroast and bikes. So if I pay $300 rent in Mtl for a 2br near the farmer's market, what can I expect in Chi?

I am in, depending on how dead I am after that century. Either way, I will need alcohol.

If we don't get enough peeps, we could just ride and drink
and go to the show. Either way, I will end up stinking drunk.
