9 a.m. From Chandler
Katie's Kitchen in Des Plaines (Wolf and Central)
Pace: Casual
Distance: 27 miles
(That's basically Dana's route to Randhurst, just not as far.)
As I write this on Tuesday morning, there's a lot of rain in the forecast. Unlike the North Shore Century, we will not go "rain or shine". I'll post a cancellation by 8 a.m. If I'm cancelling or changing the route.
On an earlier ride to Katie's, we found the restaurant was shutting down at 1 p.m., so we just got in under the wire. Katie was getting married that night and if you own a restaurant, why not have the reception at your place?
