The way points of this bicycle route:
A couple of blocks on the good ole Prarie Path
Edson has the least gradient of any N-S street I've found in Lombard
Take the east sidewalks next to the golf cousrs on the return route.
Beacon Hill Retirement Home parking lot cuts out a steep gradient. Say hi to the residents!
Careful here. Let the cars turn right. Nobody sees you.
Stay on the sidewalk. Little used. Cars going fast an dnot expecting bikes
BIG BIG Gradient going south. If you can make it over this, you can take anything else the world throws at you today.
You made it!!! Congrats
Tricky intersection. Take your time.
Now enter residential Downers Grove. Much fewer cars.
Carry your bike over the tracks. shhhh
Path by the elementary school
At work. Time to shower up. Good luck.
