Two quick options:
Railroad Grade on Mt Tamalpais is all climbing, but it's a polite grade and
the views are quite nice.
It is south facing so can get pretty warm if the temps come up. But there
are places to stop and recover.

Orange. I've never owned an orange bike but I've always wanted one. I'd
have to say that the Gus in orange is one of my favorite bikes of all time.

On the Amtrak trains in the DC/NYC/Boston corridor you have to take the
front wheel off and hang the bike on a hook. I'm not sure if it's the same
everywhere, but fenders might be more of a problem than a long bike. I can

Thank you both for the insight! I've decided to pass on the Gus, and look
into mixing things up with another type of Riv for that eventual build.
For the Susie, I think I'll go with a temporary threadless stem adapter/
stem to play around with with lengths while I'm getting used to the bike.

Hi Friends, I looked at your excellent photos and posts in between patients at work today. I’m really, really hoping not to have to take off the front wheel or hang the bike. I’m aiming to just part it somewhere and tie up with John’s straps if need be. BUT, I thought it best to practice tonight. T
Amazing David! Looks like a great place to take a kindergarten class for a
field trip!
Beautiful bicycle.

PSA Nice looking 59 Clem L near Boston, MA @ $1,500 seems almost new (no

Leah,
With the front wheel removed and the bike hanging from the rear wheel,
there'll be plenty of room. (Also, bags need to be removed from the bike,
though.) Here's a photo of my Rawland rSogn heading to D2R2 in Vermont. The

You can also use your knee under the saddle and push raise the bike up with
one leg while having both hands on the bars. One hand on saddle one on bars
works well also.

What Valerie says precisely. Susie / Gus bikes are mountain bikes. “Hillibike” is clever & cute but does not do them justice, in my humble opinion. It’s confusing because you can ride them for other duties but.., if you have tires that optimize a Gus/Susie for MTB use, it’s not fantastic on pavemen
