    Seeing as I just got back from U.S. Eastern trip last week and have a bit of cash left, was thinking of doing 7 or 8 days starting in Ohio - Kentucky (boone forest ) then dragon area and zig zaging back through mountains to Buffalo area. Would be a very swift ride each day starting at 8am and...

    Where to base in Ohio

    Marietta is a good base for Ohio and WV. Almost every road from Wheeling to Marietta is great. 26 is good but not the best one. If you don't want to take Hwy all the way - You can take the 62 from buffalo over to Hwy 79 then south. I was thinking of going down on Sat for a week in that area...

    Sturgis 2015

    Looks like u had a good trip. Can't go wrong riding in Colorado. You missed one fabulous road off the bear tooth pass. The 296 at around the half way point is even better then bear tooth. If u ever get out there again make sure that you do that one.

    Buffalo to Ellicoville.. 219 or ..?

    Re: Buffalo to Ellicottville .. 219 or 240 or...? Part way down the 219 has many twisty roads - I just can't remember the route I took. You just need to find them. Someone on site posted up a route a couple of years ago and it was fab. Was on the West side of 219. Zoar Valley road was the start.

    Trip around PA/OH/ WV... Tips wanted

    Ohio is one of my Fav places to ride. Go down about twice a year . Roads are amazing like Shane said. WV has tons of great roads. You can't go wrong in that area. Even the mountain area's are full of great roads. (George Washington - Jefferson - Monongahela Mountains)

    BRP / Deals Gap question about route on the way back

    Don't waste all your time on the BRP. The last 100 miles is more then enough and the best part of it. Just do the mountains all the way down. Way to many roads to list. Just look at Google map and you will see how far you can go.

    A Soggy trip down the BRP

    Been in that area many times. You always bring rain suit. I had a week like that 2 years ago. Rain 6 of 7 days. I am heading down on the 19th for 8 or 9 days. Need to check out some new roads. Glad you enjoyed it even with the rain.

    Lake Superior Circle Tour

    Most of the Good roads in PA can be done in 2 days. If you have a week to explore just head more south. Doesn't take long to hit WV and do tons of nice roads. Try to make a big loop out of it . You will find the north side of Superior is fantastic ride. The south side is so boring and flat and...

    Pennsylvania during Weekdays, and in Mid May

    Was there on the weekend (May 9 - 10 ) Roads were in pretty good shape - Traffic is not a problem. 2 days will get you on tons of nice twisty roads. Just leave very early. Wykoff Road says closed - but it is open - they have a small bridge that is dirt filled to cross - that's it.

    Mac - if your boy has better seat and wind screen and risers - He won't have any trouble at all. You know me and that we are near same age.

    Don't forget New Hampshire - white mountain area - The guys have given you tons of idea's. The best way is open Google up and find the nasty - twisty roads you can find and go do them. I have ridden in probably every state you mention on several occasions and not even come close to hitting all...

    I have written about the South Eastern Ohio & West Virginia area before. It is half the distance to dragon. Has to many nice roads to ride. So if looking for an area to ride for 4 or 5 days, head down and enjoy the roads. They are just as good as the dragon area. I have done 3 small trips this...
