chykynlyps 0 #1 August 16, 2007 Hello DZ.com, my name is Rich. I just did my first solo and can no longer really think about much else. I am literally just burning through the minutes until I get to jump again. I jump at Chicagoland Skydiving Center in Hinkley, IL. I have tons of questions. Most of which will go in their appropriate threads. Lots of newbie stuff. Boat drinks and blue skies!!!Bear Down Chicago Bears!

chykynlyps 0 #5 August 17, 2007 In Chicago any month between October and March. They suck for the most part, but the Bears play in those months so that makes up for our inability to jump out of airplanes.Bear Down Chicago Bears!
