Now, about me. I started mountain biking in the late 1980's at Wisconsin Kettle Moraine. There is an article I wrote on partnerships that can be formed on IMBA's web site. In the Kettle Moraine area we have single track trails in a rolling wooded typography. However, we need more trails and are striving to get them.
Cook County includes Chicago and the surrounding suburbs which has some eight million people.
Most of the biodiversity in Illinois is located in this land. I am also an associate board member of the League of Illinois Bicyclists. Presently, I am the treasurer of IMBA and have implemented new accounting procedures and an audited annual report. At 57, I am the oldest of the board members, but am young of mind and heart. I love to mountain bike, not just for the physical exercise, but for the experience one gets from being in nature.
