Did You Know?

Only 24 percent of jobs in the region are accessible by transit in 90 minutes or less by a typical resident — and that number drops to 12 percent in the suburbs.

Bike, eat, repeat!

Come for a ride with us! On Sunday, September 7, you're invited to join us for the Four-Star Bike & Chow

This go-at-your-own-pace ride follows four bike-friendly routes (see right) curated by our friends at the Chicago Cycling Club.

Expect to encounter hidden parks, eye-catching architecture and plenty of Chicago history.

Not only is the ride interesting and fun, we’ve made it convenient.

We offer mechanical support, volunteers along the route to point the way, rest stops and water stops to ensure you enjoy your ride.

And of course, your registration fee supports the Active Transportation Alliance’s efforts to make cycling, walking and public transportation easier and safer in Chicagoland.

When it’s time to take a break — in addition to the to-be-expected water, fresh fruit and cookies waiting for you — we’ll have scrumptious samples from a host of Chicago restaurants:

New Furama
nana
Pierogi Wagon
DonerMen
Phoenix
Bridgeport Pasty
Lou Malnati’s

Check out our menu page for details on what treats to expect at which rest stop. Or check the punch card in your rider packet (which you will need to enjoy the treats).

Four routes of different distances start and end at the UIC campus.

And save room for a tasty post-ride Revolution Brewery beer at the post-ride festival. Register today!
