Bike the North Shore Channel Trail




The fully paved North Shore Channel Trail extends from the junction of Lawrence Avenue and Francisco Avenue in Chicago to the junction of Green Bay Road and McCormick Boulevard in northern Evanston. We’ll be starting at the southern trail head after meeting “First Slice” Pie Café & Coffee Shop in the Ravenswood neighborhood. Most of the trail runs alongside the North Shore Channel, a drainage and aeration canal built in 1909; the southern 0.25 mile follows the North Branch of the Chicago River. The Skokie Northshore Sculpture Park (https://sculpturepark.org/visit/) from Dempster to Touhy is an unexpected counterpoint to the adjacent channel landscape.



Where:  Meet at the First Slice Pie and Coffee Shop.


When:  Sunday, June 14, 2020

Time:   Meetup at 8:45AM.. The ride will leave the lot promptly at 9AM.

Registration Closes: Sunday, June 7, 2020

The number of participants is currently limited to 10 for this event in accordance with State of Illinois  COVID-19
