McDonald's® L.A.T.E. Ride 2006
( Long After Twilight Ends )

 

Pictures from the 25 mile ride, from Buckingham Fountain, to the Northwest side of Chicago, then down the lakefront bike path.  We started just after 2 AM and finished around 5 AM.  Nearly 10,000 people participated.

 

At first I thought our camera was dirty with all those spots, but after several cleanings I realized it was the humidity the air
