Join us for our Family Friendly Bike and Brunch in the suburbs on Saturday June 14th at 9:30am to 11:30am.  We will bike the Forest Preserve, a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts, offering miles of scenic trails for biking, hiking, and running. Located just a short distance from the River Forest Metra stop, it's the perfect place for an easy bike ride through the woods.  Along the way, we may see deer, foxes, and other wildlife.  

Please RSVP to let us know if you are going to make it.  If it is raining we will reschedule.  Please also bring a bike lock and water to hydrate.

This will be an intermediate bike ride and suitable for all skill levels. The trails are smooth, well-maintained and run along the Des Plaines river.  We will follow along the Des Plaines River to Robinson Park. The park is named after Alexander Robinson, the English name of Potawatomi chief Chee-chee-pin-quay, born in 1787.The trek will be 20 miles and will take us up to Park Ridge where we can stop for brunch.

The group will start off at 9:30 from Thatcher Wood a short 5-'min ride north from the River Forest Train Station.  For those arriving by car, you can park in the Thatcher Woods parking lot off of Chicago Avenue.  If you are coming from Chicago, take the Union Pacific West line to River Forest, arriving at 8:50 in River Forest.

We hope to see you there!
