Scenery:
|
|
Rolling
Ohio countryside with streams that follow the roads and
lakes in the distance. Old houses in many of the towns.
Great views from the hilltops. Overall this route has it
all as far as motorcycling goes. If you want to cruise
and enjoy the scenery, or if "hitting the curves" is your
style of riding, this is the route for you. I've ridden
this route at least 25 times. I just love it!

Quality:
|
|
Great
roads with lots of curves and hills. Not a route for a novice.
All with the added bonus of there not being much traffic
on many of the roads.

Amenities: 
|
This
route takes you through some small towns and villages,
like Zoar, Ohio. Gas is no problem. There are some small
"mom and pop" type restaurants and of course fast food.
These will be found in or close to the small towns along
the way.
