WE were going down a little hill at Stony Creek Metropark. next month i'm taking this bike on the Zoo-de-Mackinac with my girlfriend, there are plenty of longer hilles in Emmett County!

[zonatandem]

Ah, good old Stoney Creek . . . used to do that loop around lake quite regularly back in the mid-70s!
Coming off the hill at the entrance coming down Shelby Rd (?) could get you up to that speed too!
Try the UP for some longer hills!
Enjoy tghe ride TWOgether!
