Full Moon Fiasco 32 true-up

---click the photo for some more pix---





Thanks to everyone for making it a great ride. The weather was perfect, had a great group, and a kickass route.


In a rare bit of pre-planning, Sol, PJ and I ventured out earlier in the week to scout a route going north to cut through and connect a series of parks. This also marks the first time the Fiasco has actually crossed the city limits!



About 15 minutes after we slinked out of Gannon's we pulled up next to the river along the North Channel Trail. Beers were produced from packs and jollility ensued. Rico rode the bucket o' booze, emblazoned with the FBC logo, which I promptly tumbled into and was nearly ridden away with by a bike pirate:




We cut a path along the river up into Lincolnwood, then back to Chicago on Touhy to circle around to Lerner Park for another beer break. Later, we pulled into Cary's on Devon Street to find that it was open mic night or something. And to find plenty of pitchers.


Great ride, everone. The Racketeers and their entourage were missed, but it was great to see so many new folks. And now for an image to haunt you till next month, I present Full Moon over Devon:

Full Moon Fiasco 30 true-up



Hey yall. Good times last Tuesday. Once again, we were back on a school night. Looking ahead, July will be on a Friday. August will fall on...ahem...the third Saturday of the month. Those of you who know the Marauders know exactly what kind of brew that stirs.


Anyway, a nice ride through the North Side. Cruised through a couple of parks, then south to Logan Square to land at the Two Way, aptly named for the entrances on both Fullerton and Milwaukee.


On the way, we had Willow cranking the pedals of her little bike as though she were powering the entire northside. We had Craig portaging the Modus Hoperandi. Thanks Craig, it was delicous. We also had a bunch of yahoos that didn't ride with us meet up at the Two-Way. You know who you are. Good to see you anyway. When it started getting late, a few of us fools gave up the seven dollar pitchers and went to Corner Bar for $4 pitchers. If memory serves, we took a photo of our Full Moons inside the bar, but proof has yet to be rendered. See yall next month!
