Has any one been down on this road . It sound like a nice ride they also call it Ohio's dragons tail..I am thinking af going down on Canada day weekend .
thanks
 
Yes, did that last year with few of my buddies when we went down to Mid Ohio to watch an AMA race. Unfortunately there was a lot of gravel on the road specialty in the corners. Not sure if it was done to slow the traffic down or not. I had to slow all the way down as I was afraid of crashing my K.
 
I did it two weeks ago. It was very good. Not the best pavement out there but it was amazing.

Here's my full loop.

6th was not the most exciting road. Twisty but I did not have to take my butt of the bike. 87 is great though.
 
Always dirty from local farming activities. Beware of slow moving tractors
 
Did a similar ride two weeks ago...Pretty well any road in that area is scenic and full of twists. You might want to book a room in advance as the area is full of bikes and tourists.

Did it back in May of this year. Lots of fun and quite tricky so take it easy. There are lots of elevation changes so you can be coming over the crest of a hill and not know which way the road turns. I found myself looking for telephone poles and the treeline to give me a bit of warning. I was expecting lots of debris and gravel but it was in much better shape than any Ontario roads.
 
Used it to get home last August. Thought it was a great road. As stated lots of turns and elevation. It was in good condition at that time.

Note that just an hour west of Zainsville is the AMA Hall of fame museum. A great way to waste 2 hours and they covered motorcycle parking to boot.
