2019 Road Cycling No. 2: Ahmeek to Eagle River, 19.2 km.
To ride further, you need a car. Fortunately, I have a car that big enough to include my mountain bike. It may not as convenient as a bike rack. But a good bike rack may cost as much as few hundred bucks. It is not a cost effective way to buy a bike rack for just few years.
The route, that from Ahmeek to Eagle River through the Five Mile Point Rd, is currently my favorite route. This route is quiet, straight, and not too steep. Few cars would pass by you since most people will go through the US-41. To arrive in Eagle River, you just need to go north for 10 miles and then go west according the road sign.
Don't know who named the Five Mile Point Rd. The name is so casual. It actually have around 10 mile (16 km). Not good for a running. But anyway, I was cycling.
When you see the house, you will know you arrive the eagle river side. Lake Superior is on your left.
Here comes the summary and map of this ride. It was a relatively flat route, and the altitude ranges from 200 to 290 m. The average riding speed was 23 km/h. The max riding speed was 52.5 km/h, which happened at the long slope at the 9th kilometer.

After the cycling, it was a good time to have a delicious lunch. Let's have the white fish since we just back from the Lake Superior. It is a high possibility that the the whitefish was caught in recent two days from Lake Superior. Why not enjoy the flavor from that lake. Baked fish keeps more flavor than the fried fish.
Well cooked white fish and sweet potato.
