Anyone ever hear of this route? I can't find the website now, but I know it was route 800 and I thought it contained 26 and a couple of other roads in South Eastern Ohio. 800 and 26 look really sweet. In fact, there are several roads down that way that look like a lot of fun. Anyone who has ridden down there, input is greatly appreciated.

I've taken 26 to 800 to 78 on a trip years ago. I recommend it as a route to try. OH 26 is very twisty coming out of Marietta, and you have to watch for gravel as there are a lot of gravel side roads that split off of it. I think I stayed in 2nd gear on my GS1100 for 15-20 miles and let gravity do the braking. It was almost like driving with an automatic transmission. OH 800 was nice too, but I don't remember anything particular about it. I've taken most of OH 800 from OH 26 up to US 250 over the years, but never in one shot, so I can't really recall which section is which. The best part of OH 78 is west of I-77, especially the area right by Burr Oak State Park.JP

I was driving the cage over in that area a few weeks ago. It was a pain in the rearend with the stick. I was wishing I was on the bike.
Best thing I saw was a Drive-Thru that said "Beer, Cigarettes, Guns and Ammo!" I thought that was a nice combination. that was in Glouster.Comment

Dave, give me a shout for a weekend ride. Just don't make it Labor Day weekend. I am, however, off the entire week following...
I'd love to have someone "twist my arm" into going riding. Seems like that's the only way I'll actually get on the bike these days.
