Venus Backroad - By MCgirl703

Took this ride 4/23/2021. Started from CR-74. Nice 27 miles of back road with little traffic. Then road a short distance on US 27 to CR-731 to Old SR-8 (CR-17) to (US-27) to Main Ave. Stopped for lunch at Morty's & Ednas Craft Kitchen. Highly recommend their BLT sandwiches. So much delicious bacon. Return trip was on Lake Dr. This road runs along the west side of Lake Placid and offers a better view of the lake. It also has lots of curves for Florida. Even a couple of 15mph turns. Return trip incorporated CR-731. Nice road with several twisties. Traffic was light except for a few tractor trailer trucks. Return trip- Lake Dr to SR-70 to Old SR-8 (CR-17) to CR-731 to CR 74. Approx 150 miles round trip.
