Today I went from my home base in Higashiyama to Nagahama. I traveled around 70 kilometers around the west side of Lake Biwa. It was a bit windy on the ride especially closer to the lake shores. I really took in the vastness of Lake Biwa on my ride up and got to see some other cool sites along the way. You can also see how large Mt. Ibuki looms in the background of Nagahama City.

Bike Route: Higashiyama => Nagahama (82 Kilometers)
