Any Chicago Ninjetters?

I'm in the West Loop.

Anyone in Chicagoland want to get together for a ride before winter ruins everything?

I'm still pretty new to riding so it would be a pretty relaxed pace.

Did winter ruin everything before you got a ride in?

Yeah, I never ended up connecting with anybody for a ride before winter reared its ugly head. I'm going to take a ride with a few friends on Ducatis and Buells once spring is here.

I see at least 25 listed members in Chicago
http://www.zeemaps.com/pub?group=258...16&z=13&list=1

Sometimes a PM is best way to contact ppl for a ride, as most will get an email alert (in case they do not often check forums).

Also, somewhere in video section I believe is a Moto vlogger from Chicago on a 250/300

I'm going to try to get something together once I get my bike put back together and out for the season.
@Rifleman You're probably much closer to good riding than me, it takes an hour from the city before there's anything interesting at all.

Definitely. I also like to ride LSD until it ends up north, and then follow the Sheridan lake path up to the northern suburbs. That's actually a pretty fun ride in a few spots.

yeah, there is some fun stuff out by me, the "Oswego TT" course. Plainfield road to Ridge, Ridge to 126, 126 to Grove, Grove to Collins, Collins back to Plainfield.

nice little loop in the country, some elevation changes, not a lot of traffic. I don't go roarin' but it's fun.

I've run I-55 out from LSD, that can be a bit hairy until you get out to Midway.

Keep me in the loop, if you are doing something like a run to Marseilles or something.
