It never really crossed my mind… even after last night’s crazy storms.
When my we scheduled a bike ride this morning along the Chicago River North Branch up to the Botanical Gardens… we never even thought about FLOODING!!! Chris and I parked, got our bikes out, geared up, ready to ride. Only to find out that the bike trail is underwater!!!
And no, this is NOT a lake!!!… there is green grass under there somewhere!
We even tried two different entry approaches… BOTH FLOODED!!!
So we packed it in, drove back to the City and did a fun 70 miles along the Lakefront Bike Trail instead. No flooding along the Lake!!!
