What is wrong with the answers - and the offered link - you received
on Peter White's site?

2010-05-06 Thread Ken Freeman
Tino, there's a lot of overlap between RBW, BL, and (in case you don't know
it yet) Internet BOB.  Same really for Classic Rendezvous, but your question
would be marginally appropriate over there due to the rules, it tries hard
to stick to pre-1984 upper end road bikes.  You've got a few good inputs,
but I think the biggest variable is, what part of Chicagoland is accessible
to you?  If you live near Evanston, it makes no sense to have to take your
bike to South Halsted.  Similarly if you live southeast, like Pullman, it'll
be hard to get ot any of these places.  If none of the suggestions you've
gotten so far are usable, let us know, maybe we can dredge up some more.
