Not sure how many more lives DLSD has to take before we get serious about what we actually want on our lakefront, but apparently the answer is always “at least one more”

My lower lip this morning dares to ask the question: what if someone stapled a juicy bratwurst to my face?

Even more paint went down early this morning, and lol. Lmao even.

Late-breaking #chilft update: all the patches between 4600 S and 5600 S are completely repaved and open again 🙌

Crews were on site at Promontory Point by sunrise on Thursday. I would not be surprised to find that these stretches have fresh asphalt by tonight. #chilft #bikechi

As of this evening, there are multiple short stretches where the pavement is ground off and tar has been put down, from 4600 S to 5600 S on the #chilft especially at the Point. The patches are loosely barricaded and it is possible to go around as long as you can handle grass.

I'm just laughing because Route 66 does in fact run between Chicago and St. Louis.

I actually saw someone on the lakefront trail a few weeks ago kitted out head-to-toe in SPONEED.

Heads up #bikechi resurfacing on the lakefront Trail is underway this morning at promontory point. Trail completely closed but of course you can go around on the grass. #chilft

Was excited to get home and post about @bikegridnow.org Jamapalooza but instead I have to post about my washing machine that just broke and also how the tofu salad I bought for dinner on the way home was spoiled. Sigh.

Bad news out of Indiana, thanks @ericallixrogers.com for the tip. They produced the glass used in the leaded window that once hung in the Schlitz tied house on Ewing (& probably their others)

Yep, that's me standing in the middle of US-41 waving a kitchen knife around directing traffic. You're probably wondering how I got here.

I'd missed yesterday's editorial where CRR charmed the Trib by putting them in a room full of former cops, punching towards loony lefties, and promoting how parks surveillance has increased

Heads up that bikes are being rerouted onto the pedestrian side of the lakefront trail between Randolph and a little north of Monroe. It's not great. #chilft #bikechi
