Metra bike blackout for Lollapalooza

In case you're not already aware, Metra will not be allowing bikes from Fri. 8/3 to Sun. 8/5 due to expected crowds for Lollapalooza.  The exception is folding bikes in bags, however, trains may be crowded enough to make even folders a tough squeeze.  If you were planning to take your bike on Metra this weekend, you may want to try CTA or Pace, or find another way to go.
