Written Directions

This trip is very easy to explain. Just start in the town of Garfield, OH (near Salem, OH) and head north on Rt 534 all the way up to Geneva on-the-Lake.

Scenery

Great scenery small towns with great people. County with the most covered bridges in Ohio ... a camera is a necessity! Mike Tyson's old training camp is located on this ride.

Drive Enjoyment

All 2 lane roads but not much for turns. Scenery makes up for it.

Tourism Opportunities

This trip is pretty straight riding all on 534. Lots of small towns and watering holes. Plenty of gas stations.

There is a nice hotel at 80 and 534 cross roads as I don't recommend staying at Geneva hotels. Plenty of things to do with the Geneva night life. Live bands are a summer attraction. Plenty of hotels, bars and good spots to eat. Camping if your so inclined.

Great ride! I just found this website & found some great rides for this summer. The only thing to watch for on this one is North of W Farmington their is a lot of horse manure on the road. Other than that it is great. Go in the Summer months because the strip in Geneva is dead from may-sep.

Stop in Mesapotamia at the store at the end of the commons. Very interesting! Sept 8-22 is Thunder on the Strip in Geneva on the Lake. Nice "local" rally!

Great Ride and awesome views, but the road is starting to turn bad up in the Mesopatomia area. Be careful of payment groves parallel to the lanes. Dont get your tire stuck in them!! Downtown mesopatomia is a great place to stop and stretch at the cirlce. Cool picture of the wooden horse and buggy made out of old wood from the general store. All in all, great one day trip!
