I found this forum doing some google searches for lanesplitting in Ohio, it's nice to see other people appreciate KY roads as well. I live in NKY and so it's basically my backyard. I could offer some suggestions, but route 10 and around it are some of the better roads here. Pretty much every road has good turns, but some are better paved and roads like 10 have fantastic visibility thru the turns at parts where it runs along the top of a hill. Starting at 915 is good, I used to do that a lot but the past few years it's a much better road for cars than bikes. While it has some fantastic turns, including a tight decreasing radius that then goes uphill on the exit (http://goo.gl/maps/SDlm), the pavement has been utter shit and didn't give me any confidence at all. Any roads back there will offer decent riding, but my favorites tend to be the roads that run along the tops of hills. They're usually more sweeping turns, but there are some tight ones too and you have the benefit of visibility. The roads that run in the valleys have some great tight turns, but for many of them you can hardly see around them, leaving a lot of potential hazards. I've come across cars that were liberal in their lane usage, turns tightening up(one required a change of pants), and the worst is gravel. It's something many wouldn't think about, but everyone who lives on those roads has a gravel drive, and in the low areas they all live higher up on the hills( sometimes for flooding reasons, see pic here that I took yesterday http://i.imgur.com/rlQMl.jpg ). This leads to gravel constantly gathering at the foot of driveways, and worse so if it's rained recently from the water flow I guess. Because of stuff like this, I tend to take it fairly easy on those kind of roads out to 10, where you can open up and take some more risks. I haven't ridden 22, I'll have to check it out sometime but it's a bit out of the way as I start up north. I usually take a different loop. The biggest flaw I see with your plan is getting on the highway , find some nice roads back too. That said, I don't have to ride here or back so I can imagine it's pretty tiring. Edit: Tho I see one has you going back up 25, that's decent but you could loop back to 177 too
