    Yo, if you still wanna go fast in Illinois hit me up, I've found 3, mile+, 45mph+ hills out in Galena Illinois and would love to have more people to hit them with, there are 0 cars on the roads only the occasional biker group, And each one is pretty much straight, def no need to predrift which is why you get such nice speed.

    PM me if anyone sees this and is interested.

    Also if a lot of people get interested I'd want to have an outlaw out there.

    HIT ME UP

    Damn and Downers Grove is an hour from my house, and I live 2 hours from Galena. But if you think you could handle big hills and lots of speed, if an outlaw goes down il send you a message and if you toss some gas money I'd be down to pick you up.

    Check out the whole area surrounding Galena before you say that. There are hills that are longer then a mile and you reach speeds of 45mph+.

    Yo noddle, I live in Crystal Lake, so Galena is 2.5 hours from me. Nd you could def take a train to Crystal Lake. so if you think you could handle going 40+ that'd be cool to have more people out there.
    Plus I want to see how many people can go fast in Illinois/around us cuz i want to have an outlaw/slidejam out there, its beautiful for longboarding.
