Since this is a ride into the city the pace will be on the lower end of moderate . We'll depart 8:30 from Chandler and ride to the west trailhead at Ridgeway where I'll do a little talk about the trail then ride west to east exploring and investigating the trail. Please bring a snack/sandwich for a "picnic" along the way, If time allows we'll visit the Nelson Ahlgren landmark apartment in Wicker Park,
