Is the end the Beginning?
The sun came out late morning here and because of the Bears game tomorrow, some of us decided to ride the beginning of Route 66 today. Aside from the historic markers, Route 66 in Chicago is nothing more that typical city streets and avenues. Busy, busy place on a Saturday downtown though. The only evidence of the end of 66 is this sign on a lamp post. Tonight was the opening ceremony dinner and it was interesting to find who is here. Along with people from 42 states there are people from Brazil, England, Bermuda, Japan and Canada and I had dinner tonight with a guy from France and one from Saudi Arabia. The oldest male rider is 74 and oldest woman rider is 69! Not many 20, 30 or for that matter 40 year olds.
