There already is a few around. We usually meet up on Sundays, since thats about the only time most of us can agree on, since we all have families.

That being said, I'm always down for a Thursday night session.

Usually I like to hit up the lakefront bike path around millenium park, and go for a long distance cruise heading north.

I'm in Evanston,we have a killer slalom spot near the morton arboreteum,will hit mill park sometimes,although for us,is been a bust sometimes.I'm riding a 40" in the parks these days,love the northbrook park and would be down for a downhill session anytime in the northwest suburbs.Any of you guys skate the palatine ditch and the adjacent hill?i gotta say for a city this size,with two board companies in it,the scene sucks,lets do something about it.cfav
