With the extreme heat and hopefully the thunderstorms out of the way, Thursday 6/26 should be a good day for our leisurely North Park ramble.
Meeting 9AM at Chandler, we’ll take the Skokie Valley Trail to North Park, ride at a leisurely pace (10-12mph) through North Park Village, Eugene Field Park, North Park University campus, have lunch at either Tre Kronor or Sissy’s, before returning on the North Shore Channel Trail. Total mileage should be just over 20.
We have two special guests on this ride that will share their knowledge of the neighborhood and point out interesting sites along the route. Diane Dillon who teaches various classes related to art history and architecture at the Newberry, and Joanne Davis who we all know, regularly teaches us new things on the many rides she leads. So c’mon out, ride, eat and learn!
