At least here in Illinois rural towns have okay train access and can easily accommodate bike infrastructure. Many rural towns with a university have decent bike networks already. It's North American suburbs that are more hopelessly designed around private vehicles.
Meet at The Picasso in front of the Daley Center at 6pm. The route is rumoured to cross all the major sports fields starting with Soldiers Field and ending at Wrigley. This ride happens monthly and always starts at the same location.
I don't understand how drivers that commit violent crimes get to keep their license and registration. I regularly notice aggressive violent behavior from private vehicle owners. I don't want to see them locked up but if you cant follow the rules you shouldn't own a car or have a license. There are other ways to get around Chicago.
