Written Directions

Not too hard to find. Just south of Zanesville, OH is the very small town of Brush Creek, OH. Just get yourself to Brush Creek and head south on route 555 for about 30 miles till you get to the end point of Chesterhill, OH.

Scenery

Beautiful isolated farms with rolling hills. You'll be driving next to and through some of the Wayne National Forest.

Drive Enjoyment

Lots of very challenging twisties. Roads line the crests of rolling hills ... an amusement park for sport and sport touring bikes. NOT a novice road. One should attempt this road with extreme concentration. Road conditions are fast with little traffic.

Tourism Opportunities

Isolated. You're there for one thing - to ride.

The Triple Nickel is a nice ride, but the road conditions and blind corners can make it a treacherous. Traffic can come out of nowhere at hidden roads, and large patches of the road surface are heavily potholed - you really have to be on the top of your game while riding.

Also, be aware there is really only one place to stop for fuel / food on the route. So if you see a gas station - STOP.

Don't stop in Chesterhill, keep going south to Little Hocking. 555 stops at US50/SR7/US32. More miles to go !!!

Rode down to Zainesville from the west side of Cleveland on 5.30.16 - Rode the Triple Nickel (about 62 miles to the end) and it was challenging. A ton of sharp turns, hills; Only got out of 3rd gear a couple of times, but it was amazing!! Roads were in great condition, low traffic. Going back later this summer.
