I had a little fun during this ride. Even though the title states Navy Pier, I ended up making Lake Shore Park my turnaround point which created a new route to ride in the future. A specific picture was requested by Doc Andersen which led me the Navy Pier. That picture is of the Chicago Harbor Lighthouse which you can see from a distance. In order to get a clearer picture, I would have had to walk down the pier near the end, which will have to be for another visit because bikes are prohibited along the tourist heavy pier.
Other pictures below are of a sculpture by Seward Johnson, which actually was moved from the time I initially visited the Navy Pier over a decade ago. Every time I see this sculpture ‘Crack The Whip‘, I tend to reminisce about my earlier visits to Chicago and the Navy Pier. A lot has changed over the years of the landscape of the Navy Pier.

Beautiful photo thanks…. For share
And thank you for dropping in. Plenty more to share in the future
Thanks, Tasart. It is actually one of my favorite cycling jerseys. And the sculptures at Navy Pier in particular take me back to my earlier visits to the city before I moved here.
Thanks for sharing, I really like your photos of Chicago the sculptures and the map. The clothing is great too
Thank you very much for dropping in
Looks like a wonderful place love the statues and that Ferris wheel.
It is a very wonderful place. I highly recommend visiting it, if you ever visit Chicago. I’ll try to share as much as I can.
I have been several times to Chicago in my life but visiting with friends and have not really explored the city.
The stunning color of the water, so blue. I love it. And the statues are beautiful
Thank you for dropping in, Fortune. It is a very beautiful sight. I love coming out for therapeutic sessions in the morning.
Great photos. Love the statues. And the blue water is incredible.
Thank you for dropping in, Carol. Have you ever visited Chicago?
you are my hero you got the lighthouse! That is awesome. I love Navy Pier!
When I have the spare day I will get a closer shot of the lighthouse. I bet it looks gorgeous up close. I never knew about it prior to you mentioning it. While riding towards the pier, I kept looking at it while riding on the trails.
I used to stand on the end of Navy Pier and take pictures of the lighthouse. Then I would find Shedd Aquarium across the water and take pictures of it. I will see if I can find some and share them!
Cool. I anticipate seeing them. Still parts of the area that I haven’t seen yet.
I shared a few, will share more
I will search them in the Virily search engine.
Kudos to Virily for publishing it early in the morning. I literally put this together once I woke up in the morning.
They are really putting forth an effort. They are actually getting new members and growing!
That is pretty sweet. I was actually shocked this morning to find that they published 3 articles I submitted yesterday.
I think I saw two of them. Awesome posts!
Beautiful photography , thank you for sharing
Thank you for dropping in, Witty
