Checkpoint. Mostly cloud, warm - mid 70's and very windy, 16-20 mph from the SSW with gusts up to 30. We've had perfect Fall weather for the last 10 days and it's coming to an end this afternoon with a cold front and rain moving in later in the afternoon. This will be the 9th day in a row riding for me for a total of 280 miles, today on mixed terrain in Warrenville and Naperville. Changed start location to McCee Marsh off Mack Rd when I noticed the trail through Blackwell FP is open again after 2 years. New crushed limestone throughout but it was very bumpy - will take some time, rain and a lot of bike traffic to smooth it out. Also rode through St James Farm, Warrenville Grove, McDowell Grove, the DuPage River Greenway, several woodland park trails and finished up riding through Herrick Lake FP. A nice ride with a lot of stops for pictures and the wind was a bitch when I was exposed to it.
