Like most roads in this area 800 has almost continuous curves from start to finish. It alternates between ridge crests and valley bottoms so there's a lot of up and down. There are many blind hill crests where you don't know if it's straight, left or right so slow down a bit at the top. The things that make if fun for riding make it a bummer if you get behind a truck because there you'll stay. Barnsville is your best bet for food along the way.
Update from Ohio’s Road Ranger (July 30th, 2020): As of June 2020 Route 800 from Sisterville to Woodsfield is in good shape. Fair or better pavement. Check www.OHGO.com for updates, and I’m uncertain of the condition north of Woodsfield, but as of a year or two ago it was good up to Barnesville.
