This is Eric at Buckingham Fountain. Supposedly the one-time start of
RTE 66. We rode from there to almost Joliet and never saw a 66 road
sign, and we were following a ridiculous map printed by Bike Illinois.
Don't use it! You'll get lost and get sicknof turning left or right
every .1 mile! So this morning, almost 40 miles from Chicago, almost
to Joliet, Eric and begin our search for the Old 66 to take us across
the Chain of Rocks. As Eric wisely says, "We chucked the map and
there's looking back."
