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.

GREAT road! Definately, worth going just for it however I was surprised how many similar roads there were in the area just by getting off the 'big' roads. I was there Oct 10th and don't remember any gravel problems. My CAUTION would be DEER! In the middle of the day! Had several 'scares'. Re; Dragon? Although I'd do 555 again, I would not compare it w/ the Dragon. Sometimes dramatic corners but MUCH longer than the Dragon and houses right by the road! It's just different but worth your effort!

Started to ride 555 South from Zanesville and the road is "CLOSED" 3 miles into the ride. We ended up backtracking and taking South 77 to Marietta and then on to the end of 555 at Belpre, Oh. Rode 555 from the south...Awesome ride!!!! 550 is also a great ride, going into Athens.

Twisties, trees, hills, very little traffic, what more could you want. Rode this rollercoaster with my wife and some friends. Did encounter a motorcycle accident along the way that made us ride a little gingerly for a few miles, but as long as you ride within your ability this road is quite enjoyable.
