Sorry you guys can't make it.... Hope to see you next month.

Tomorrow's weather looks OK, 3 or 4 inches of snow in the city right now.
Roads clear might be slushy tomorrow.... A bike with fenders would be a good idea.

Thanks, Skip

Saw these cool his and her Schwinn's we talked to the new owner who
Had just picked them up a estate sale. Nice guy told him about the site

Then we went for a short ride to the Bike Lane for a bake sale fund raiser for a fellow bicyclist

This is a very cool shop! Lots of go fast fixie stuff

Also lots of BMX stuff no pics of those
But check out the cool parts.... Sweet adjustable stems!

Then we ride two more blocks to BangBang pie shop

The boys enjoying a cinnamon roll.

Bang Bang is a small busy place.

But they do have a cool Worksman Bike outside

Gary's bike from inside the pie shop.

Had a great day!
Thanks for coming out!.... And thanks for looking!

The only thing for sure is a ride in September with the British Bicycle club.

Also looking to have a show at Heritage Bicycle early summer.

Would love to go to the Pontiac Show and swap.

Which I think would be cool if we could organized a Saturday night ride
Before the show if guys were interested in doing it.

Also just tell me what Saturday or Sunday works for you to come up to
Chicago. And we can plan to have a ride then.

I'll look at the calendar and will see what I can do. I'm trying to get the PackRats done as soon as possible so I can get up there again soon. I'll also look to see if I can make the Pontiac show. I've got a friend from Pontiac but I'll have to see if he'll be there that weekend or not.
