http://critical-mass.info/us-d-i.html#us shows
Naperville Third Friday @ 5:30 from the corner of Washington &
Chicago Ave.
That should be close enough. Draw up a map, make copies, and submit
it for a vote!

Well, I'm not calling "Bullshit" on this, because there might be some
straightforward explanation for an obvious problem:
Chicago Critical Mass has always started from Daley Plaza after 5:30 p.m.
Batavia's about 42 miles one-way from Daley Plaza, meaning an 85 mile round
trip. That's a bit long for a CM ride, isn't it?

Er Mike, "Bob McFakename" is referring to the location where Max of
Batavia was accosted by a residential contractor blocking the road. See
<http://groups.google.com/group/rec.bicycles.misc/browse_thread/thread/7184516ba3e1d850/a7d70f4f8cdc5ed6?hl=en#a7d70f4f8cdc5ed6 >.
Presumably "Bob McFakename" believes that a couple thousand cyclists
would be able to modify the behavior of said contractor.

Mr. Tom Sherman needs to return to the Quad Cites from which he came.
Chicago is too big a fish bowl for him. Yea, get back there with those John
Deere factory working slobs in East Moline where he can be with his own
kind. Hey, you can take the boy out of the country, but you can't take the
country out of the boy.
