Not tech., but a ride idea.
« on: August 16, 2006, 05:30:31 AM »
See later post.....UPDATE
 In the Chicago area, we used to ride to Highland House early on Sunday mornings for "breakfast".  But, since Highland House (Highland Park, Il) is no longer there, we're riding to the Full Moon Cafe, about 6 miles north of there on occasion.  I'm thinking of going up there again this week if anyone want to meet-up?  I usually leave my house around 7am or there abouts, and arrive there around 8-8:30.  Bring your camera, there's usually a bunch of vintage bikes that show up.  Also see quite a few Wisconsin plates there too, so any of you cheese heads gonna show?
Anyone?

STEVENF -->
When were you thinking about heading up their ? Maybe early Sunday morning ?
Is this a tollway/highway ride,or backroads ? Cause my bike doesnt like to cruise anything over 60mph with that tall rear sprocket (which will be changed over the winter)
I am sure Danny with the Triumph would be in as well , as he is all about long rides..
Let me know...

Bike night tonite ?

Hey Joe,

As far as Sunday (once I clear it with momma), I usually take Army Trail to 53 north to the very end, Lake-Cook Rd., and then east to rte. 41 north.

Making it down there would be a long haul for me right now (staying in madison for a bit), but I would be game for such a trip sometime.  Could you all let me know where you meet and what days/times?
