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.

What's to say that hasn't been said? It's the Trip Nick, arguably the best road in Ohio. (It has competition.) From rollercoaster 'Ohio humps' to off camber side to sides, to twisty wiggles to sweepers, it has it all. Things get a bit narrow for a bit south of 78, but still a thoroughly entertaining road. I just don't know that I'm in love with it as much as some. (Then again, I do have access to many more roads than, say, some guy from Zanesville, or what-have-you.)

Little stretch north of 78 still rough, however from Ringgold (OH-78) to Chesterhill fresh pavement. About 3 miles south of Port 37 a pair of RH turns riding south with some serious gravel washout, the 2nd was nasty... be careful. Not as bad going north.

Had a group from New Jersey out for this route and included Ohio Tail of the Dragon....both rides were GREAT and we found a Moose Lodge in the middle....headed to Morgantown WVA on back roads (Route 7 or 9, I think) and this was a full on GREAT day....About 8-10 hours total but a GREAT 8 hours.....
