Chicago and Illinois on different planets

Got my mailing from the League Illinois Bicylists today. It had tons of ride brochures for the summer. Here were some things that struck me:

- In Chicago we are traffic. In the rest of Illinois, riders must not impede traffic. Organizers reserve the right to remove riders from the ride.
- Route closes at 4pm (saw this at least twice) - what does that mean? These rides seem like they’re on the street so how can they close? And if they’re on trails, how can they close?
- I’ll bet some of these rides are fun, but why would I pay money for this? Sag wagon is good, I suppose. Free watermelon is good. Free water, that’s really good.

Anyway, just thought I’d share what’s on my mind.
