BIKE Some of us are going to ride (and possibly run after) at the Joliet 4th of July Metric (62 miles). It's an organized ride, so it's well supported. We will meet there at 7AM. Details/directions are at the Joliet Bicycle Club website.

No organized Razor Ride so far for this weekend, but feel free to post any rides you might be doing on the Yahoo Group. Or check back at this site later in the week. Buffalo Grove or Hebron anyone?
Buffalo Grove Ride, BEGINS at 7:30 AM at Buffalo Creek Forest Preserve in Buffalo Grove (so get there earlier). This is our fairly standard (but really cool) ride. There are options for 30 miles, 38 miles (what we usually do), or increments of 8 miles more from that (there's a loop at the end that can be repeated). We start in the parking lot at the forest preserve:
