Yesterday I went for a 6 hour ride through the " hills " of South Eastern , Ohio.

The weather was very nice for spirited corner carving and straightaway strafing.

Lots of Scud clouds and Temps in the upper 70s with 10-20 mph breeze.



















This was interesting ?













These Indian items were being offered for sale near Ash Cave on Rt. 56 near Old Man's Cave State Park by an Indian woman an her daughter.

Just put 700 miles on the monster this past weekend.  Rode through parts of illinois, Iowa, wisconsin and minnesota.  These pics look like they could have been taken any number of places along my route.  Good times!! Thanks for the pics and keep on floggin'. [moto] [thumbsup]

I never tire of these roads. They are generally lightly traveled especally during the week, and not much you no what cars on them so it's flyin' low all the time !

MMMMmm. Nice. [thumbsup]

I don't know exactly what I expected from Ohio the last time I was up that way, but I was pleasantly surprised at what a beautiful area it was.  Fall up around Cincinnati. Your area is even nicer.

Once you get away from the Northern part of the state and the Western part and any where around the larger cities the South  Eastern part it's all woods , hills, and lots and lots of curves.

I probably saw 15 cars on the road  in 6 hours and well over 100 Bikes.

I think I'd like the weather in the Winter time but I'd go stark raving mad the rest of the time in So. Fla.

We had the 2nd coolest July on record here in Central and South Central , Ohio.

Any Temp. above 80 and I'm boiling. Hi 60s is my favorite riding Temp.

Those roads look almost exactly like the stuff I used to ride (bicycle) in Southern Illinois, though I have more of an appreciation for a good squiggly line sign now :)

Beautiful stuff, Dolph.
We're liberated by the hearts that imprison us.  We're taken hostage by the ones that we break.

Everytime I get on those roads it's like Disneyland or Disneyworld.

Yes it is beautiful. I love it most of the year.

Picture it in reds, yellows and oranges of Fall.

Very funny. Sad but true, I've practiced some tight left handers around those.

LOL IZ! You have been in Texas for one of the hottest summer on record, I would trade the humidity (lived in FL too, know what it is like to live in humidity) and the allergens for a day below 95F.

On the bright side, the 200 miles I put on this weekend in the hills were a lot of fun, even if I was racing to get home before it broke the century mark.
