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.

Isolated. You're there for one thing - to ride.

Great ride, lots of twisties. Very fun. I took this ride in fall on 2009 and had a blast. I found it by dumb luck by asking the girl at a bp in Zanesville if there were any fun or scenic rounds for a biker to enjoy. She said there were 3 and were to be accessed a mile from us (I was on west side of zzv). I chose 555 and found PLENTY on twisty roads. BEWARE: THERE IS ATLEAST ONE HARD RIGHT CURVE IMMEDIATELY PAST A BLIND PEAK OF A LONG STRAIGHTAWAYS.....

555 is definitely challenging, I road the stretch between Zanesville, OH and Rt. 550. A lot of hills and you need to on your game when the road crest on a hill for road may change direction!
I would have rated this stretch higher but there was a lot of gravel kicked up in the curves.

I don't get the hype over this road. Rt. 555, the triple nickels. I thought it was a very dangerous road. Gravel everywhere. Its like a gravel pit. Gravel in every turn. Like riding on marbles. I went down on this road and now I advise all I know to stay clear. Not worth it. Dangerous to use brakes or try to lean too much.
