Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle
Being a little tired of going up Bagua Mountain I thought I would go around it. Last Sunday’s route followed Provincial HWY 14 to Changhua City followed by Provincial HWY 1 to Yuanlin. After that I rode along County Road 141 to Ershui and 152 to Mingjian before taking Provincial HWY 3 back home. With the exception of a short climb on the 152, the route is almost completely flat. A map of the route is available on Bikemap.net. Here’s a small collection of photographs from the ride:
