here's what I sent the admins:
Bikefest Pool Tour WINTER EDITION—Saturday January 22nd, 2011
Note: Pool Tour is Snow or Shine—but will not be held if it is raining/sleeting/etc! Helmets and blinky lights encouraged.
Meet 1:45pm at Kiva Han in Oakland at Forbes at Craig. Depart at 2:00pm for Oliver Bath House on Tenth Street in the South Side for open swim!
Travel to the tropics of the Oliver Bath House for open swim starting at 2pm! Then, we dry off, gear up and head to the Sarah Heinz House on the North Side (right off the riverfront trail) for a visit to their pool and facility during their nonmember open house! A possible excursion to a university pool facility might also be warranted if we can work it out, and hot chocolate stops are likely (heck, bring a thermos to share). This ride will be partially on roads, partially on trails, and we will keep together in a group, riding at a pace that includes everyone.
Pool passes should still operate for free admission to the Bath House, otherwise admission is $4. Admission to the Sarah Heinz House is free.
