Anyone got any good map links or route suggestions that might be of help? I seem to recall seeing a pdf online of the barrington loops, but can't seem to find it.

I sort of figured I'd head north... then west... ? :)

Velo Club Roubaix has some good maps on their site too. I think TurboTurtle rides with these guys so he might chime in on this threads... You out there Turtle?

Ah! thats the one I was looking for! Thanks Steve!

Every time I ride north past irving I look to the east... no Steve ;)

hope all is well. things are about to get hectic in our household with a new family addition, but I'm still getting out on the bike.

Yeah... Soon I'll be gone from Chicago. I accepted a job in Reno, NV prior to the 4th of July holiday so we'll be moving soon. I'm driving out in a couple of weeks with a suitcase and a couple of bikes to live out of an apartment out there and start working. Mrs. Steve-O is going to stay in Chicago until our loft sells and then move out with me. Hopefully that process won't take too long! Good luck with the little one. The first couple of months are pretty hectic but it gets better once they start sleeping though the night. If you know anyone that's interested in the neighborhood or getting a loft let me know!
