Attention #BikeChi. Monday Coffee in North Lawndale (16th and Kedzie) has SIX new staple style racks right out front.
Their brown sugar syrup with cardamom in an iced latte is an S-tier drink on a hot day.
Meine Nummer Eins aus Deutschland ist heute bei mir angekommen! 🥹😁😍 We have wandered in the neighborhood. Looks like the new Gateway River Plaza (Lawrence east of Sacramento/leading into Ronan Park and the North Shore Channel Trail) could open any day now.

I just looked at the hourly weather report and winds are up to 20mph gusts?!?!!! So I will be taking #Metra home today.
One gust can side cross swipe me and take my wheels from up under me. I refuse to fight this time. Lesson learned!

Chicago bikers: how'd the layout for Logan Square Farmers Market work? I'm part of the Logan Square Chamber and want to make it work for all or improve it if I can. #LoganSquare #Chicago #Chicagobike #BikeChicago #BikeChi #ChiBike

Oh, getting my roll on will never cease to be my therapy.

I’m now at that point, having made new riding buddies at an exciting pace this year, that schedules conflict and you have to decline an invitation that would have been so fucking cool to accept. 🥲

CHICAGO - Hanson Landscape truck and trailer parked in the bike lane at Union Park, 4-16-26.
Hanson Landscape of Big Rock, Illinois, at Union Park in Chicago. Hmm, I wonder if it’s OK to park here? Are there any signs or pavement markings? #BikeChi @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social @bikegridnow.org
#bikechi if you’re biking around, make sure to top up your sealant or bring your flat fix kit. The start of street sweeping either kicked up a bunch of debris or deposited it. I got a puncture on the way to work and saw at least 2 folks with flats on Milwaukee this morning.

Legion Park fountain, still inoperable
Flooding in Legion Park south of the fountain.

Not a great morning for a ride (or a walk) in the park. These were taken along the North Shore Channel Trail in Legion Park shortly before 9 am on Wednesday, 15 April. NOTE: the underpass beneath Foster Ave is currently closed for lead abatement.

Like most midwesterners, I want to make the most of my summers. Until I bought a bike in 2023 I always felt like I failed to enjoy the summer enough, but exploring the city through group rides, biking to the lake to swim, just biking around to be outside for a bit, I never want to stop #bikechi
is Monday Night Ride still a thing? Or are they only doing the Archer Ave protests for now #bikechi
r/chibike u/Anima|Cool8727 • 1d I had to stop Join 5 year bike commuter calling it quits, Sorry comrades. 3rd time getting hit, 3rd time going to the the ER at Northwestern, 2nd time the Doctor remember me, had to call it quits after that. (and yes I was in a bike lane following the rules of the road) Shout out to Keating Law who was able to get my bills covered, highly recommend them.
Been reading on the social
Medias about a bunch of #BikeChi #ChiBike people quitting biking in this shitty. Too much danger. Too many drivers hitting us.
Zero vision in the city of Chicago.

7am commute via Milwaukee Ave: counted 18 other people biking before I got distracted and lost track. Good to see lots of people out on a drizzly but warm morning! #bikechi
Open pit surrounded by caution tape and barricades on the southwest corner of Winnemac and Ashland
Same spot at night after the barricades were predictably knocked over
I guess this didn’t upload yesterday but heads up #bikechi there’s a big open trench on Winnemac just west of Ashland for (very necessary) sewer work. It’s covered by an unsecured plate and surrounded by sand and gravel, so I‘ll be avoiding that bit.
FYI #bikechi friends
Ride this wk: Carillon at Univ. of Chicago (resched. from last wk).
Next wk: Mon & Wed training rides, Lake Katherine social ride.

Broken concrete bike lane barrier at Milwaukee and Kilbourn
The pre-cast barriers on the Milwaukee Ave protected bike lanes are not holding up well. The section north of Addison is particularly bad. 😬

@chiwho.bike #bikechi Does anyone have experience or familiarity with the Halfbike? I’m on the verge of ordering one but hope to gain some clarity by speaking with someone who has used one. Inconsistency/general poor quality of streets and trails/paths in Chicago have me questioning my wisdom. TIYA!
Our spring cleanup workday is Sat. 4/25 9 am-noon. Bring work gloves if you have 'em.
Meet on trail just N of 95th St. If you're driving, go to W side of 95th/Ashland Jewel parking lot. #bikechi

Signs warning that grade crossing will be closed for construction from 4/15 to 4/25
On my afternoon #bikechi ride around Beverly, I encountered some good news. Metra is finally replacing the very rough grade crossing at 105th between Walden & Hale. Yeah! @chi.streetsblog.org @betterstreetschicago.org
