Exactly that, go to Newark, Zanesville, Coshocton, Logan or Nelsonville and take any two lane road from there.

Some of these roads are actually difficult, so choose wisely... and be careful...

Best roads to ride and Columbus don't really belong in the same sentence. That said, hit North Riverside Drive then go East on Clark-Shaw then South on 315. Avoid rush hour and lunch and don't ever try to go North on 315. Truck central.

Do the loop. All the way around 270. The faster you go, the better it is.

I do that quite a bit actually. Usually when I just need a "stress" relief ride.

I forget what my time was when I did it the last time, maybe 40minutes or something like that,

wasn't tryin to set any records :p

Haven't done that in years! What's the fast lap on that?
Back-in-the-day... heheh, there's a story there...

I seem to remember hearing something about a "15minute Club" but I think it was for cars,

you'd have to be haulin some serious ass to make it around in 15minutes!

how big is the loop?

And I assume you mean distance.

From wikipedia:

Interstate 270 (abbreviated I-270) is the beltway loop freeway in the Columbus metropolitan area, commonly known locally as "The Outerbelt." The "western" (and "eastern") terminus of I-270, at least in terms of the zero-milepost, is at the junction with Interstate 71 east of Grove City, Ohio. I-270, along with Interstate 670, provides access to Port Columbus International Airport. The entire length of I-270 is 54.97 miles (88.47 km).

I got 26mins. :D

Like I said, wasn't "really" trying, plus time of night was prone for cops,

ran across three of them setup at different locations.

I'd like go out sometime and hit it fast but there always seems to be cops at some point around it.
