  1. A smart rider will never ride an unknown road over the speed limit the first time thru. The experience rider will never take a less experience rider thru a new road over the speed limit either. The one consistent think I have learned over the years. Motorcycle riding is one of nature’s ways of weeding out the stupid.
  2. Yep floorboards my main bike is a 2012 Heritage Softail Classic got it this year to replace my 2003 100 year anniversary Lowrider that was totaled in a T bone accident a young girl on a cell phone ran a stop sign in front of me I hit her at 40 mph messed me up pretty good also. I only managed to put about 8000 on the bike so for this year. I also own a 1977 KZ1000 that I bought new in 1976 OK back to 536 On the first sharp curve going down to the river (15mph) I can only manage between 30 to 35 mph on the Harley anything over that carries me over the center line I would like to try it solo but the wife will not get off out in nowere land. How about those small speed bumps over the culverts that are in some of the curves they will pucker your ass up if you don’t know they are there.
  3. To funny Anyone riding this road should take their time on it the first time thru. 536 is one of my favorite roads in Ohio I ride 2 up with the wife we ride it 4 or 5 times a year and usually make at least 3 runs around it when we go. Some times you need to get the floorboards sparking on the curves you just need know your limits be safe. There is only one thing more fun than sticky tires and a curvy road.
  4. Has anyone else here ever Ridden RT 536 and Rt 522 in Southeast Ohio If not give it a try it a fun challenging run. Here is a link to a map. I will post a map of a road we call the rollercoaster later it’s a 12 mile run that will keep you out of your seat most of the way thru it. Also looking for some other good roads to run next year that are close by. This is a good 35 mile challenging ride with close to 400 cures and elevation changes. The roads are in good shape No semi trucks are allowed I have never seen any LEOs on these roads there is very light traffic watch for gravel in the cures after any heavy rains For a close view of the road from the map link above drag the little yellow man that is on top of the sizing bar and drop him on the map to see that part of the road and surrounding area.
