After a fun PG-13 bachelor party in the Indiana Dunes (hikes, homemade pizza, guitars, soft drug use by my companions, hot tub) I’m leaving Beverly Shores for West Lafayette today, home of Purdue, then on to the closest #WaffleHouse to Chicago in Avon, outside Indy, tomorrow. 
I rode 70 miles to the dunes from Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood on Friday night. On a clear day you can see the Chicago skyline from here. 104 miles to go to my motel in West Lafayette. This will be my longest ride in a day for about a decade. Let’s see how I do...
Here’s the vintage station for the @southshoreline in Beverly Shores. Service is suspended on the east leg of the route, replaced by bus shuttles, for a double tracking project. 103 miles to go today.

I’m leaving Chicago’s Uptown nabe to bike to the closest #WaffleHouse in Avon, Indiana, outside Indianapolis. 70 miles to ride tonight to a bachelor party in the Indiana Dunes, where I’ll spend the weekend. It’s going to be a long night, but it’s a familiar route on trails.
That last place was Jake’s Pup in the Ruf, specializing in broasted (pressure-fried) chicken.
Chicago’s Lakefront Trail is super busy today thanks to the gorgeous weather. Good to see that the separate pedestrian path south of Fullerton Avenue is repaired and re-opened.

The city is looking pretty today.
3 years ago today, a gunman used an AR-15 to senselessly murder 4 young people at a Waffle House in Nashville. They had their whole lives ahead of them.
We remember their names:
— Joe R. Perez, 20
— Akilah Dasilva, 23 @akilah_the
— Deebony Groves, 21
— Taurean C. Sanderlin, 29

The 2018 Waffle House gunman wasn't stopped by a "good guy with a gun" — as is almost never the case. (This is a myth pushed by the gun lobby.)
Instead, he was stopped by @JamesShawJr9, who was unarmed. nytimes.com/2018/04/23/us/…

16 million Americans have lost their jobs. It might be time to rethink exactly how fragile our economy is. theguardian.com/business/2020/…
American's are known for ingenuity, hard work and sacrifice. We are too reliant on multiple JIT processes and off shore manufacturing. Let's get think about what makes the economy more resilient and push more business to the small local businesses. The ones Wall Street kills off.
Five years ago was pointing out the renaissance in small manufacturing, farm to table, hub and spoke local delivery. Pushing money inward not outward. We need to remove middlemen and vendors who don't have a stake in your survival. The ma and pa greasy spoon model. #WaffleHouse
Sees #wafflehouse is trending...has no idea why.

So back in high school, the crew used to hang out at Waffle House. Cause that's about one of the only places teenage kids could hang out at 1am in the midwest.

We end up being regulars after a few months of this. Eventually, we came to know one of the cooks. Charles.
Or Crazy Charles as we called him.
Dude was obviously not all there. He'd say the weirdest stuff. But he'd also give us free food. And we were broke teens. So cool.
