This was a lot of fun except for the wind. The bagel and coffee plus the company made up for it!

Thanks! I might use a trek fitness bike instead of the beach cruiser. Tires are narrower than beach cruiser but not as narrow as a road bike:-)

  It should be fine - it's pretty hard packed with the crushed stone. I've never seen it in an unrideable condition due to water.

Hi Kathi, is this ride going to branch onto the Des Plaines trail off of St Mary's to get to Einstein B Bagels?

  We will be on road after leaving the North Shore Bike Path at St Mary's Rd until we reach Rt 22 - then we'll jump on DPRT to reach destination.
