    I've just moved to the Lincoln Square area from Boston and would love to meet some other biking girls. All I see on the trails are old guys!

    For starters, after this thread, maybe try again with a new user name.

    I'm in the western 'burbs...Riverside, about 5 minutes away from Brookfield Zoo. Hubby and I do lots of our riding south of here...down in Burr Ridge, Willow Springs, Palos, Darien, Lemont, etc.

    We should all do a ride on the Prairie path once the weather gets warmer!

    Isn't the Prairie Path covered in crushed limestone? I don't think I'd want to take my Cervelo road bike on that...with all that dust being kicked up, I'd be cleaning out the drivetrain for days...

    I think it's probably called the North Branch trail... goes up to and through the Botanical Gardens. It's a great diversion to the LFP in the summer, because it's much less traveled.
