GOOD MORNING FELLOW OHIOIANS!!!!<<<<<< Is that a word??
Hi Ohio
- Thread starter black_rob00

Spring is round the corner. I can't wait to get the winter tires off and put back the sticky Potenzas! I was at the Byers Mazda dealership this morning and picked up one of their magazines, "great cars, great places" and one of the articles is about spectacular road trips for those who believe driving is about more than just getting there.
One of the roads in the article is actually in Ohio, State Route 78 from Nelsonville heading east to the Ohio river. Apparently the road is a test ground for cars handling and chassis due to numerous corners. Below is a quote from the article;
"Years of testing new cars have taught us that the roads of southeastern Ohio bring out both the best and the worst builty into every chassis. This particular highway is a frequent site for road tests, and its meanders in surprising ways from the town square of Nelsonville through to the Ohio River."
Can't wait for spring to test the handling of my mazdaspeed!

I looked up Neslonville and it looks to be a bit far for us Cincinnati folks, I think we'd basically have to come through Columbus... 2 1/2 hours just to get to Nelsonville
but have fun! I'm sure we'll find something more down this way (2thumbs)

yea but those are meets to hang out, driving 2-1/2 hours to get to a starting point for another several hour drive (each way) is different I think
I suppose we drove almost that long to get to skyline drive when I was in DC...
I guess if the roads were that sweet it might be worth the trip, but we do have some fun roads down here in the cinci/nky area too
So, I dunno, maybe?
btw, Onatrum, I like your new rims
