The attic yielded a useful set of touring wheels: Zeus hubs, Weinmann concave rims and sturdy-looking stainless steel spokes. I added a pair of Jack Brown Mile Munchers in 700 x 30C and off we went for a test ride.
First think thanks for all your posts. A great window to a part of the world I will never see in person.
I apologize for my ignorance but your world is so so different. The midwest of the USA is so car centric.

No center line. Is this a one lane road with two bike paths?



And this. Road, bike path?
