Pothole city and every two cars go on the stop sign. Don't even think of taking that Laramie bridge north of Roosevelt. It is one of the few trips in the city that I have crossed my fingers and hoped for the best. No shoulder. Hardly a gutter and a bridge with potholes that leaves you blind over the crest while cars are speeding up and down an unpoliced quarter mile. Just popped into my head when you were talking about this...<BR/>I still love it. Molly lives in Cicero and comes in that distance every day.
