Two gems for a nice ride route around down lay along or just off of Racine Ave on the South Side. Plenty of chill back roads to get there from the East and West, and come from the South, you can simply take Racine or Halsted is a bit faster. Better yet, the chill Loomis down through and cross the river there in Pilsen. Most of all these options has a bike lane. Heading to a fair bit down south to 87 where it picks up Vincennes down into Beverly or even take it to hit the Major Taylor Trail which runs south east to about 129th and Halsted. So great place to get to all around. We suggest at least wiggle through some side streets as much as you can.

​Welcome to the iconic Illinois Centennial Monument of Logan Square Park. This 70ft monument was built in 1918 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Illinois’ Statehood. It’s made up of three parts: the top has an eagle in reference to our state flag, a doric marble column in the middle and then the base which contains reliefs depicting the rapid transition of Illinois during its first 100 years.

We were supposed to be bike camping already! Missin' seeing y'all and sleeping outside. Anywho, I know with some many folks craving some outside, though some of the go to trails are not open or crowded as heck!  So not the best to ride in as you try to stay socially distant. Instead, use our city's incredible bike lanes to cruise a new neighborhood. By the way, out of the 77, how many have you been to? Get out there. Explore this city. Ride its streets to soak in its mourning and enclosure and distance. Take whimsical turns down random side streets and back alleys. Explore the historic and natural richness of our home. 

Wander around. 

Greetings and Season 4 Update

Bike camping season is in full swing! Last you heard from us, we were dropping our 2019 camping dates and registration. 5 months later and . . . BAM! We have sold out every ride of the year to this point. Most of them were filled 2 months in advance. We have a major goal to fill every ride of the year, and we will do it! Help us get there by signing up for those last couple of tours with spots available including the ride where it all began, The North Loop Ride this coming weekend which will take you to one of the most bodacious prairies you ever did see. You'll earn it with nearly back to back century rides - July 27-28.

Can you envision a regional trail network of paths lined with native habitats leading to our regions State Parks and Natural native open spaces?
