"We got both kinds, bike nights and group rides!"That's right! One day only, we're getting the band back together and hitting the road, retracing some of the route from a classic Chicago movie - The Blues Brothers.
Growing up, Blues Brothers was one of our favorite movies, and that status is still held to this day. There's so much Chicago and musical history in this film, and we felt it's only right to ride as a tribute and visit some memorable filming locations.
As much as we'd love to visit all of the locations, it's just not feasible. Instead, we mapped out this route for maximum enjoyment!
This is clearly a special event for us, and we can't wait to share it with you all. It's something we've been working on for a bit, and hope yall like it!
To commemorate the event, we'll have some LIMITED SHIRTS printed up by @modestmerch with an epic design drawn up by @funbeerd. Slide for shirt details and DM to order.
Ride Details:
We'll kick the ride off after getting fueled up at Ground Up Coffee and Bites. From there, we ride to the Old Joliet Prison using only back roads.
After taking some time to learn a little but about the history, we hit the back roads again and it's off to Kokomo and Bob's Country Bunker for some lunch. Formally known as Sollitt Tap in Beecher, IL.
After some grub we'll get back on the road so we can hit Lake Wazzapamani and the Palace Hotel and Ballroom. Otherwise known as the Shouth Shore Cultrual Center. We'll be taking a group picture here.
From there, we'll ride off to the Cook County Tax Assesors at Daley Plaza to finish the ride.
