Day 13 - 60 miles Black River Falls to Eau Claire

Even though we had a unplanned day off and a good nights sleep it took awhile to get into the biking groove again.

Once we were past a few miles of rough roads we found a rhythm as we biked past a number of pine forests, Christmas tree farms and some horses coming to greet us including a mom and her colt.


















To fuel up we stopped at great pie place in Osseo called the Norske Nook place per Tim's Uncle Skip's recommendation. Tim had this huge fresh raspberry pie.





We were surprised by the steepness and number of hills we had to climb but they were followed by some fun downhills.

We passed a winery but unfortunately it was not open.








We made it to Eau Claire at about 12:30 and found the Pine Meadow golf course. It was a perfect 9 hole par 3 course to try out our all-in-one club. The clubhouse had a great selection of beer and very friendly staff. Scott was fun to chat with and he provided some suggestions of where to eat in Eau Claire.



















We stayed within walking distance of the historic downtown and sampled the beer at the Lazy Monks Brewery, which has a German themed Hofbrau house interior, and enjoyed a meal in the Water district.












Eau Claire has a number of Bridges and scenic interconnecting paths crossing the river. There was also a number of unique sculptures throughout the city.
