Route (and distance) you ride between home and campus:
About 1.1 miles from my apartment on 18th St. I take Morgan all the way. Anyone else think Morgan could be created into a Pilsen-UIC-West Town-West Loop Super Bikeway?
Biggest challenge:
Remembering to clean and lube my bike. Last winter, I was ignorant about oiling spokes and two broke.
Tips for new cyclists:
Lube your chain every two weeks at least. Fill up your tires with air! If you've owned a car, you had to do these too (well, change the oil instead of lube the chain).
