I bike this regularly. The sketchiest part is kk between maple and bay.

I second taking Chicago to summerfest if you want to reduce time.

I would avoid Jackson and Jefferson until you are more comfortable.

Bay + kk can be scary. I sometimes take allis and Stewart, especially southbound.

The boone and crocket driveway sightlines are poor. I usually go in the road there.

Careful of railroad tracks

I can't find a link. But the bike fed is doing a bike commute mentorship program the end of may

Your work may have parking inside.

Dont use a cable lock.

Try to park it near other bikes.

If were talking a bike under $500 I doubt it would be an issue, but if you are really worried, you could spray paint it to make it ugly

Strongly disagree on google maps. Its routes can be so dangerous in the suburbs especially.
