Seeing the count climb toward five hundred reminders me why I started this fight for our local business. Let's keep this momentum moving so the city finally has to pay attention to our movement.

Seeing the count climb toward one hundred signatures gives me so much hope for the future of our neighborhood streets. Please send this link out to your local friends so we can hit that milestone before the next licensing review.

I fully support Pedal Pub refusing to add a motor. If people wanted a motor, they would rent a trolley. Chicago is losing business and tax revenue every summer this business is not licensed.

We pay enough jn taxes, parking, tolls, and stimulating the Chicago economy. With the city being as broke as it is, why shut down a local business that is a great source of income not only to small business owners but also money towards the city.

I am a bit amazed that a city such as Chicago who is progressive in their thinking as it relates to New Business Development has take such a short sided approach. This business opportunity is not only unique but it has the ability to promote other businesses within the area. Poor choice City of Chicago!

When I first saw the PedalTavern in Milwaukee, I couldn't wait for this idea to come to Chicago. The City has figured out how to license food trucks, shared commercial kitchens, and other innovative businesses. Stop stalling and help PedalPub Chicago get their license.

My mom requested a Pedal Pub party for her 60th birthday, she lives in Indiana and would be paying to have her family come celebrate and stay in Chicago for this experience! She'll be crushed if she doesn't get to pedal pub this June 2014!

This is revenue and a attraction. One of the lamest cities (alcohol wise), PHILADELPHIA, has it. They had so much fun!
