    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Anyone ever hear of this route? I can't find the website now, but I know it was route 800 and I thought it contained 26 and a couple of other roads in South Eastern Ohio. 800 and 26 look really sweet. In fact, there are several roads down that way that look like a lot of fun. Anyone who has ridden down there, input is greatly appreciated.

You can speak for Rose, eh?

I'd like to get in on some of these rides too. Just need a little notice to make sure I'm open that weekend.
 
I've taken 26 to 800 to 78 on a trip years ago. I recommend it as a route to try. OH 26 is very twisty coming out of Marietta, and you have to watch for gravel as there are a lot of gravel side roads that split off of it. I think I stayed in 2nd gear on my GS1100 for 15-20 miles and let gravity do the braking. It was almost like driving with an automatic transmission. OH 800 was nice too, but I don't remember anything particular about it. I've taken most of OH 800 from OH 26 up to US 250 over the years, but never in one shot, so I can't really recall which section is which. The best part of OH 78 is west of I-77, especially the area right by Burr Oak State Park.
 
I was driving the cage over in that area a few weeks ago. It was a pain in the rearend with the stick. I was wishing I was on the bike.

Best thing I saw was a Drive-Thru that said "Beer, Cigarettes, Guns and Ammo!" I thought that was a nice combination. that was in Glouster.

I find those parts of the country to be more civilized than the urban or suburban areas. Except you can't get a pizza delivered.
 
Dave, give me a shout for a weekend ride. Just don't make it Labor Day weekend. I am, however, off the entire week following...

I'd love to have someone "twist my arm" into going riding. Seems like that's the only way I'll actually get on the bike these days. :(
