First time with my "PEUGEOT" on a bicycle tour in Wisconsin
All the times I was in this neighbourhood
a plan to do it once with my bicycle was there
It's soft rolling with gradually hills - kind of "Southern-Limburg - NL"
Did put a triple on this 2nd-bike, with about 40 pounds load
so I could handle most steep hills.
48x38x28 front --- 28-24-20-17-15-13 rear
plenty of choices to find the right 'gear'
Above General Mitchell International Airport, did visit this one 18 times
AMS-BOS-MKE, AMS-DTW-MKE , AMS-MSP-MKE
or used it as a Stop-Over to fly further to MSP,SEA,MOT,BIS,YYC,YEG,YYE
O'hare is more my base of the last years
