– long sighted movie from 1975 starring the recently deceased James Caan (1940-2022). Ultraviolet corporate sport is the global entertainment and the individual personality is quashed. Inspired stories in my childhood comic 2000ad.

Green Necklace
This is always a good ride through the City. Taking a pleasant cruise through the leafy wide roads that connect a series of parks – from Logan Square in the north to Hyde Park in the south. As architect and city planner Daniel Burnham said: “Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood and probably will not themselves be realized.” Well his 1909 plan for Chicago isn’t little.

Sunset Strip
A chap and his Bonneville on Sheridan Road. Heading home to Rogers Park I was at the red light near Loyola when this dude swerved up.

Vanishing Point
Good ride on a splendid spring day. Green is the dominant color and spring bloom the main scent.

Sheridan Road
– a cool hundred mikes around Lake County with a brief sojourn into Wisconsin. I gotta say it but the bike is just a pleasure to ride.

Coming out of winter
– Lake Bluff was the nearby destination with grey skies overhead. Project site visit to inspect trees that are going to be transplanted. Good to be on the bike in spring. New sheepskin saddle cover is plush and make you want to ride off into the west.

Sturmey Archer 3-Speed?
– Made in Nottingham these were on every boys list in the Seventies. They were ridden as if they had an engine like this smart example.
