Toledo here..... I know the feeling.... :2hard Ahsieh2 08-23-2006, 10:56 PM I've heard the Hocking Hills area is pretty nice. I know it's about 3 hours from Dayton but not sure where that is from Columbus or Toledo. :thumbup: unkut2003 08-23-2006, 10:57 PM I've heard the Hocking Hills area is pretty nice.

That is your best bet. That is the only place that comes to mind as far as hills and twisties if you like em. carguy5387 08-24-2006, 04:31 AM well thanks for the tip, it is still about a hour and a half away but it may be worth it. thanks SoK 08-24-2006, 06:40 AM Across the state for me... :headshake
u in toledo too? snredrum 08-27-2006, 01:44 PM we have gone out to RT 203 or RT 204 I can't remember which one it is. Its the one that runs through delaware. Also if you want some nice right hand turns, take the rt 33 / I 270 clover leaf a few times. its the one by dublin. We usually get a group of us together and ride. PM me if you want to go sometime. We may be riding tonight as well. 2006GSXR600 09-04-2006, 06:26 PM I'm down here in Northern Kentucky with Cincinnati across the river. Come down here and I'll deffinitely get yah on some twisties!!

You're not too far away. You ever ride down here? Natigixxer06 09-19-2006, 11:56 AM i am in Middletown ( between cincinnati and dayton) and i have plenty of great places to ride. mostly in the west side of butler and hamilton county and indiana. prebble county can be pretty nice sometimes too. hocking hills is nice and worth the ride, but not for hitting turns real hard. there is too much gravel and debris in the road. too many harley guys going 7 mph around the corners too. SoK 09-19-2006, 12:34 PM I'd like to see these.
yeah come on down man, we do have a lotta good roads, but no one to ride with... :( Hank 09-19-2006, 07:32 PM It's a bit of ride to get there, but just east of I-77 at the West Virginia border is Hwy 26. It runs from Marietta up through the Wayne National Forest and has some great twisties, hairpins and off camber turns with not too much traffic. I went there last summer to ride and it was a blast.
There are some state campgrounds nearby if you want to stay overnight.
I'm in Michigan so I know what you mean about the straight-ass roads.
Just came back from Deals Gap in TN / NC a couple weeks ago. They have some fantastic roads down there, curves everywhere. tke4life 09-19-2006, 08:42 PM Cincinnati here!!! there are some decent roads around, but I won't lie after going to the gap nothing around here has peaked my interest in a while lol...definately have to get together sometime soon Natigixxer06 09-20-2006, 03:10 PM you guys interested in getting together for a charity ride that meets at that baseball stadium in florence. it finishes up taking 3 laps around the speedway. its on sep 30. SoK 09-20-2006, 03:15 PM 30th is next sat. i think i'd be down. what charity and where's the ride goin? thx Natigixxer06 09-21-2006, 06:46 AM 30th is next sat. i think i'd be down. what charity and where's the ride goin? thx
i believe it is the march for dimes. it ends at the speedway with a bunch of vendors and food and free t-shirts and stuff like that. i go on a bunch of these with my dad and his VTX and goldwing friends it gets oring without other sportbike friends. last one i went on was in richmond IN and we wnet down the airstrip at the airport and we got to open our bikes up for 2miles . there were a few 1000+ guys who hit over 200. i only had my bike for about a month and i wansnt that daring yet. let meknow if you would be down and we can meet up somewhere and cruise down to the event. I like meeting at bob evans or frischs and et first. SoK 09-21-2006, 09:24 AM i'm down man, i'm shootin u a PM now
