LSD (Lake Shore Drive to non-Chicagoans)

[specialist8]

I live near O'Hare. At some point this summer, I do intend to take a trip on LSD and stop for breakfast at Lou Mitchell's. If that starts to come close to being a reality, I will let you know.

Never been to Lou Mitchell's but a hearty breakfast sounds just great.
Pterry - I just got the pic offline (too hard to use my camera phone whilst cruising ) But the view is as realistic as the photo.

Guth - Your story epitomizes much of the urban taxi scenario. Not surprised you felt a bit scared, but they always seem to get you there
in one piece. Can't say I've ever seen a taxi in an accident though. In my experience I always got the Nigerian or from some other
obscure African nation that is attached to their bluetooth headset.

Empty Sea - Thank goodness those LSD MC sanctions have been lifted as I'd feel deprived and
shunned from my own city. Paying city sticker prices for roads I can't use? Get outta here.

I gleefully praise ABATE for getting that matter resolved. They do some great work in Illinois to have managed to make Illinois remain pro-choice
helmet wise. If you know how bureaucratic and crazily democratic Illinois is (insert "but it's for the good of the people" mantra), you'd see
that the lack of a helmet law is one of the few bastions of freedom IL citizens have.

Rocky - There are beaches and these massive concrete tiers that line pretty much all of the lake for many miles. Some great scenery for sure.
