Rai did a fantastic job on this tour. He was engaging and kept the group cohesive. We had a very easy pace and did well to dodge Chicago traffic! The stops were perfect: deep dish pizza, hot dog, cupcakes and beer. Despite the cold, it was fun and the last 4 miles are around the lake with no stop signs-Awesome.
