Join us Sunday, September 17 for a bike tour of the Chicago River's South Branch. We'll celebrate the Chicago River Trail campaign's first year and demonstrate our support for a continuous trail. 

Riders will meet at 10 a.m. at Federal Plaza (Adams/Dearborn) and head south for a 12-mile trip. Along the way, we'll discuss plans to improve the river and opportunities to add trail segments. 

The route includes stops at the river's south fork, La Villita Park and Eleanor Street Boathouse. The ride will conclude at noon in Ping Tom Park in Chinatown.

This event is open to cyclists of all ages and skill levels. To register, please contact Steve Simmons, 312.216.0472, steve@activetrans.org
