My ride took me south to Red Wing with a bunch of younger riders on their carbon bikes. Still managed to lead the way up a few of the Wisconsin 35 hills. Here's the view from Veteran's park looking north up the Mississippi valley over town. Nuke plant steaming off in the distance.

It takes a helluva climb to earn that view. Was that at the beginning or end of the ride?

I've been up there on motorcycles a few times, but never attempted it on any of my 30+ lb bicycles.
