Part of the tour includes touring some of Chicago's attractions. We have three OPTIONS for this visit:
- Loop Option: Loop the southern tip of Lake Michigan, This would be an 10-day trip (2 days travel, 6 days SAG- supported biking, and 2 days touring). No guests are anticipated
- Option 1: Stay in a motel in down town Chicago and use it as a base for daily bike rides and city tours. This would be an 8-day trip (2 days travel, 3 days unsupported biking, and 3 days touring). Guests are anticipated.
- Option 2: Stay south of Chicago for cost considerations and include less urban biking.This would be an 8-day excursion (2 days travel, 3 days unsupported biking, and 3 days touring). Guests are anticipated.
Without a doubt, downtown Chicago has more tourist attractions than the downtown of any city in the world. One can spend several weeks just visiting them. This tour only has three days. Check out this list of 47 quality things to do and put your list together and we'll put together a SCHEDULE.
The Chicago area also offers lots of Rails to Trails and greenway trails (see the MAPS PAGE). Option #1 and Option #2 rely extensively of those trails, thereby minimizing urban biking as much as possible. The Loop Option relies on US Bike Routes.
