generally on a weekend we make it from Montrose and Milwaukee, on the NW side of the city in under and hour. We go Kennedy towards O'Hare, 294 South to 88 West, 355 to 55, exit Joliet Road, 53 south all the way to Laraway. Taking 55 all the way around adds a ton of miles and doesn't save time for me.

I have a different route for when we race Friday nights.
