MSP Bike Ride suggestions

MSP Bike Ride suggestions

While visiting friends in MSP this week I'm planning on renting a bike and exploring the city over a couple days. I'm looking for a casual route that would include highlights of the bike system citywide, hopefully including parts along the Mississippi, in the actual city city, some of the Grand Rounds. My interests are mostly in the scenery (esp the span between bustling city and surrounded by nature) and the biking infrastructure. I sketched out a basic route, and came up with this:

Any suggestions on this route? I'll be renting a bike (maybe Tangletown or Angry Catfish?) so I'd like to avoid any unnecessary hills. This ride looks to be about 2 hours, which is about what I'd normally do but I'd be happy to extend a bit if there are detours or alternatives worth checking out. Thanks in advance.

Staten Island suggestions? Ferry to Alice Austen House/Ft Wadsworth/Boardwalk

I did this ride years ago, but curious if there's a preferred path that would make for a nicer ride other than what I'm seeing on Google maps?
