Yay!
Chicago has this cool thing where they close duSable Lakeshore Drive on Labor Day Sunday in the morning for bike riders. It’s 15 miles one direction, 30 to do the whole thing, and it’s a blast. Off we went. Ernesto did half the ride, I did the whole thing- it’s the legs. My legs were built for long bike rides. In Ventura I’d ride the loop from the Avenue to Santa Paula, through Ojai and back. It was GREAT.
This ride was perfect- the weather was in the 70s, there was a breeze off the lake, and humidity was low. Well, it was breeze heading south, but was more gusty heading north. The happy chatty riders heading south became unhappy silent grinders on the north side. Still fun though!
