Just a reminder that I'll lead the preview ride for the NSC metric century (62 miles) on Sunday 9/13. We'll go at a classic fast pace, probably averaging between 14 and 15 mph. Our starting point will be the Lakeview Center in Gillson Park, Wilmette at 9am. This route goes to Northcroft Park, then does a 12 mile loop back to Northcroft before completing the 50-mile NSC route. Our lunch stop will be Ferentino's Pizza in Lake Forest at about mile 37. Feel free to pack a snack to eat when we stop at Northcroft.
If you’re driving, I suggest you park either in the usual Metra lot across from Panera, or on one of the side streets west of Sheridan Road if there’s a legal unoccupied space, and bike a few minutes over to the Lakeview Center. Unless you are a Wilmette resident with a parking pass, you will be charged (a lot) to park during the day in the Gillson Beach parking area.
