Tamago Happy Hour

Weekly Thursday Night Social Hour: come by to meet new friends, chat about bikes, and plan all sorts of adventures for the autumn season. Snacks and drinks provided.

New to Hyde Park and Chicago? Are you a new rider looking to extend your range and capabilities? Looking for inspiration and a new goal to tackle? Are you brand new and completely overwhelmed? Do you want to meet others without the pressure of joining an organization? This casual environment is ideal for you.

Here you will find commuting cyclists, rapid Europhile tifosi, youth cycling educators, delusional amateur bike racers, locked in triathletes, dirt bag Enduro boys, bored grad student cyclists, cargo bike parents, fixie kids, urban transit advocates, washed up roadies, and everything in between.

Don’t forget about the free wine tastings across the street @57th St Wines!

Sunday Endurance: Palos

Join us for an exciting 60mi route to the Palos forest Preserves west of Chicago.

Once we reach Palos, there will be both road (rolling hills) or offroad (light trails) options.

Please note that on this ride, there are no early turnaround points, but you can rest at a cafe once we reach Palos (cutting off about 15mi).

The main group will roll at 16-18mph out and back, but a faster group will split off once we reach Palos.

Indiana Dunes

Indiana Dunes

Departing from Tamago at 8am. Join us for a casually paced ride to the Indiana Dunes. 50mi.

For those pressed for time, or still building endurance, there will be a shorter option. Upon reaching the Dunes, the South Shore Line ($8) is easily accessible and runs directly back to Hyde Park.

There will also be a group who rides out and back the same day (100mi).

As this is a significant effort, if you have any questions or concerns about preparation/logistics or ability to complete the ride, or if you plan on riding one of the shorter options, please reach out!

Bike the Drive

Join us for the biggest volunteer opportunity of the year!

Bike the Drive is the primary fundraiser for the ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION ALLIANCE. Our city wouldn’t have a fraction of its bicycle infrastructure without this organization, so supporting this event is crucial to the ongoing maintenance & expansion of bike lanes, youth education, etc.

RSVP for more information. It’s super fun, and when we’re done volunteering we’ll ride the route together! The bulk of Lakeshore Drive is entirely closed to cars for one day per year, and this is it!
