The weather looks to be quite ideal: sunny, temps in mid 70s and wind from the east.

Bill Benjamin has suggested visiting the Royko exhibit at The Newberry Library, and there is a concurrent exhibit on Indigenous Chicago. Bill has offered to do a little talk about 'Bughouse Square" by the Newberry. On the way down (before arriving at the Newberry) I will stop for a street viewing of the infamous Dr John B Murphy bronze doors next door to the Driehaus Museum.. a "hidden in plain sight" gem.

Lunch at the cafe of the Chicago History Museum.

Details: ride limited to 10 riders; so please RSVP

Bring a sturdy lock. The cafe accepts cash and credit cards.

Moderate paced ride; 13-14-15 mph.

Probably back to Evanston around 2-2:15 pm
