Hey. I don't know if any of you who are in the chicagoland area have ever hit urbans, but I live in Hinsdale (suburb about 20 miles west of downtown Chi) and I've been looking for good rails to hit.

There aren't many around me, but when we get some good snow, I'd be willing drive a bit with some people for a good urban sesh.

Lemme know if any of you Illinoisans know of any good places. +K to responses

Where I live in lake forest, theres a long 13 stair with two rails. Its just a big parking lot at the top and at the bottom you land on a sidewalk that drops into the street. Its better to hit it at night since it can be busy and the cops wont be out. But it at the metra station (east side). Theres another one I dont know where I have to ask a kid, but I think its at aspen school in vernon hills there a few handrails.
