    There was not a whole lot of Kodiak moments, because I was up against the rain.

    260 does look pretty good per Google. 646 would have been good too. Very twisty roads out in farm country. More cows than people or LEO's.

    Yep, that all brings back memories. I swear some of that looks familiar. I forgot to mention that there were some nice roads around the Mid-Ohio track near, Mansfield I think it was.

    Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the info on 555.

    Thanks much for the pics, and especially the 260 tip. There is a family pioneer like cemetery 15-20 miles north of Marietta (one side of the fam has deep roots in the Marietta area), and I've been meaning to go there one of these days/years. Will certainly spin the two wheels on 260 while there.

    Yea, I couldn't find 646, and plus I was racing the rain. I will keep 646 in mind next time I am home.

    As for 555, at least the part I was on, the road conditions were horrible. It could be a fun road if the roads were maintained better.

    Yea, I really liked 260, there were other good routes, 260 just stood out the most.

    Overall I am glad I made the trip down to mid-ohio. If the weather holds nice, I may make another trip down before I leave Saturday. I do appreciate all the suggestions from everyone.
