Where to Bike Chicago: Best Biking in City and Suburbs (Where to Bike (Ba Press)) ReviewWow! I am impressed. What a great biking guide for those of us who live in or near Chicago and its suburbs. I saw this book offered recently as a premium by one of the local public tv stations...but the available copies were quickly snatched up. However, I had a chance to spend some time with it at a friend's house...and couldn't put it down. Glad to see it now available on Amazon. It comes off as a labor of love by a great writer and a dedicated bicyclist.
This book is really well organized, detailed, reasonably compact (not much more than a pound...easy to throw in a backpack or bike bag)...and absolutely full of maps, photos, trail ratings, trail descriptions, history, log rides, etc. I'm learning about 72 bike trails (including 27 good ones for kids)...most of which I never knew existed...and thinking hard about giving this book as a gift to friends and family. Five stars!Where to Bike Chicago: Best Biking in City and Suburbs (Where to Bike (Ba Press)) Overview

Slow Food Guide to Chicago (Slow Food Guide to Chicago: Restaurants, Markets, Bars) ReviewThe reviews are a few years out of date and some of the restaurants no longer exist.

Chicago Mountain Bike Trails Guide ReviewI've seen other books that portend to contain info on Chicago-area trails, but this is the only one when it comes down to trails for mountain bikes, including nearby trails in Indiana, Wisconsin and Michigan. The maps and photos are incredible. A must read for any Chicago-area mountain bike owner. I highly recommend it.Chicago Mountain Bike Trails Guide Overview

Oldest Chicago ReviewThis is certainly an entertaining book, particularly for Chicagoans interested in various neighborhoods. It is full of facts which must have taken considerable effort to uncover. I just wish the author or editors had taken a little more care to get more of the facts and directions correct and to fix the obvious typos. e.g. page 12 The House of Peacock opened in 1837 not 1937; p 22 Leopold Loeb is not one person - presuming the author meant either Nathan Leopold or Richard Loeb; p 23. Jimmy's Woodlawn Tap cannot be "visited in Woodlawn" but is actually in the middle of Hyde Park; p 26 Old St Pat's is just east of the Kennedy not just west; p 31 if the Louisville was sunk near the Indiana line, it was near the 68th Street crib not the Wilson Ave crib; p. 73 the Lincoln statue is east of the History Museum not south; p 84 the U of C is northeast of Daley's Restaurant not northwest; p. 85 the Statue of the Republic is not a "remnant" from the Columbian Exposition but a 1918 replica; p 96 the Art Institute is 2 blocks east of Central Camera not west; p 101 Douglas is buried on 35th Street not 36th Street; p 131 Greeece should be Greece; p 165 Sheridan Hotel should be Sheraton Hotel; p 204 Andy's is not 3 blocks southeast of the Jazz Record Mart but about 1/2 block southwest; p 214 Frank Lloyd Wright left his Oak Park Studio in 1909 and would not have been down the block from a Petersen's ice cream cone in 1919; p 217 Wright's home doesn't include "dark paneled wood"; p 235 "the relatively new suburb of Downers Grove" was founded in 1832; 237 Russel's should be Russell's; p 239 Russell's is east of Maywood Park not west of Balmoral Race Track on Dixie Hwy which is 40 miles away, etc. Otherwise great stuff, I think.Oldest Chicago Overview
