Along the waterfront...

First I threw my chain, then this:

Cheap tubes!! :x Luckily, my pal Skip had a spare. And like he said, the scenery was real nice! :wink: Here is a short vid of the bike mechanic on Skips 'Blue X':

Re: Chicago Monthly Ride ~ August 21st Ride Pics! ~

We missed it! I wish I would have seen this post a few days earlier. When is the next one? My buddies and I are near Rockford but Harvard has a train to downtown that you can take bikes on for free so if you have another ride we will be there!
