One Lent's worth of riding down! Left The Hostel after midnight to ensure the entire ride would qualify for Friday. Quiet and peaceful ride though just outside of the Monon's 5am-midnight hours of operation.
Of course traveled to and from work as well.
Drove up to Chicago for the evening. Enjoyed enormous pretzels at Prost and a night cap of tacos. and tacos at location I cannot recall... [addendum: Big Star was the Friday night taco location]

The saving grace of this streak so far has been the easy use of Chicago's Divvy bikes. These are quite convenient, efficient, and fun. Picked up a friend from the Chicago Greyhound station where we declared scenes were staged for the 1987 film Adventures in Babysitting (had someone used their IP capable phone we would have avoided this conversational nonsense). But once we had our "Brenda" it was off to breakfast at Taco Joint to continue the theme of last night. The day continued from there to include Navy Pier, architecture tours, and Tengo Sur a fantastic Argentinean steak house.
While waiting for our table, we took a sidebar to have a beer in front of the Blackhawks home opener. Sure it was exciting to see a goal within the first minute, but did you see the ice projection during pregame!?
