Calling all cyclists and beer lovers to the 1st annual "Biking the Burbs for Beers" bicycle bar crawl. We will tour the many of south suburbs including- Chicago Heights, South Chicago Heights, Steger, Park Forest, Matteson, and Flossmoor. The crawl will stop at many of the most storied (if not currently the most trendy) establishments in the far south suburbs. Places where real men stop for cold one.
Feel free to post your comments and suggestions.
