Looking forward to the video Nate. Get that training in for the October Virginia ride you will surely be coming down for.

I had a ripping good MTB ride yesterday at Ft. Rock. I hadn't been on the MTB for almost 4 months and it felt great to be back out again. I'm looking forward to many more fall rides. I did take a little video so I'll try to post some of that up when I find some time.

I have no idea what's going on here, but I miss Chicago

I see that you took Jacob's advice to not cook it.

Many thanks you guys! Bought myself my first iPad for B day. Fun fun fun.

At church now. Adrian said he might pop in. Not sure. These youngsters Al - they know how to start a drunk but not how to maintain one.

No, we did not get the $900 bottle service. If the mini skirt hostess was the bottle girl instead of our goofy mumbling waiter, it might have happened. We started out at the new HC Lunch Spot, Big Star. A sample of their food, the Walking Taco Big Star seems like a must see during the summer in Chicago. Then we will have the option to chase down the doughnut truck for dessert. We then walked back to the car to drive less than a mile to the next spot, The Map Room. A nice place that was a little dead early in the afternoon which made everything a bit more relaxed than this place typically is for the HC crew. We headed to The Local Option next and Adrian started another water review. Mike reading his review to decide which water he would be enjoying today. While Bryan ignored the water nonsense and reviewed the menu as we have decided to go Colin style and have Lunch No. 2. Next we went back in time at Barrelhouse Flats. And had cocktails that would have made Baker proud. And Lunch No.3 or Dinner No.1 of some green slimy balls that smelled like ass and some Poutine. All that was left was the trip home and the cursing at cab drivers and dinner No.2 for Adrian and I at the Outback Steakhouse at our crappy hotel. Really had a great time and I am grateful the HC Chicago crew showed up to make it an awesome day.
