This group ride is based on the "Happenings" associated with the Fluxus artists in the 1960's.  "Happenings" are loose performance art situations that involve audience participation.   There will be surprises along the way and conversation about the places we will pass; '68 DNC protest sites in Lincoln Park, scrap metal yards, the Bloomingdale Trail, and many more.  FREE
