Side-note: I so need to hit this ride the next time I'm visiting my family. Lots of the same roads I used to ride to from Palatine albeit at a slightly faster pace than what I did 5 years ago.

Sprint Locations
So, I realize that I am still getting dropped consistently but I'm managing to hang longer each ride and am now wondering what the locations of sprints are. I mocked up a little jpeg (yeah, crazy mad graphic skillz yo 
) of the route with numbers at what I figure are some of the most likely locations, but would like to know definitively where the sprints are.
If any of the locations are on the loop, please clarify if it is on the first or second pass.
Thanks,
Ryan

#3 -- Lake Cook Road sign
#12 -- Penny Road sign
These are the only two "official" sprints.
Years ago, we had locations at 3,7,before 10 (the speed limit sign after the climb). We also took off from Willow Creek Church, so we didn't add the second loop up Breaburn. There was another sprint on Mundhank Rd, on the way back, just before the light at Barrington Rd.

Got them in my car. I am 50/50 for tonight. I have everything with me but really need to go home and work on stuff. I will probably come out and ride but I need to pack it in after the ride and head straight home...

Fast.
I'm still in decent shape.
Next time there are new faces, I'm going to actually try and win the sprint like a normal person.

South Chicago Wheelmen and their usual Tuesday night practice crits normally in Matteson were moved this week to the track.
