I have not been on the triple nickel, but it reminds me of the Back of the Dragon in your video. A lot of gentle turns, with some stretches of very technical sections. The Tail of the Dragon is pure technical, no let up during the entire 11 miles. Everyone will have a different opinion, but it's like comparing apples and oranges, I absolutely love "hitting" the Tail of the Dragon, but it's quick, and an adrenaline rush the whole time. The Back of the Dragon, (& The triple nickel??) Are more scenic with blasts of fun, and then relaxation, back to the blast. Great ride, with a great friend, (& great vlogger), pretty much the best way to spend a weekend! I will have to get there asap! Take Care
I heard the same about the back of the dragon that many prefer
Good observation. Back of the dragon is tame IMO. It has its places over the passes that are fun. The Tail is 11 miles of go.
🛑🛑 So much corn 🌽 !!!
“Build It, And They Will Come”’!!😂👍
Thought same 😂
Hi Jack! #ridewithjack When I get healed guys, when I'm ready. Roads look great.
Look forward to you being 100%
Great video!!! I love seeing country like this.... Thanks
Thanks Paul, was pretty for sure
These are some of my favorite roads to ride...some twisties....then you get some straight stretches to kick back relax and enjoy the views!...then run a few more twisties!...great looking riding out there...thanks for sharing...stay safe...ride safe!!😎👍🤙👍🤙🇨🇦
Appreciate that my friend from the north, it was a real fun day
Another great video and hey Im in it! We had a blast! Ride Safe
Thanks friend and it was a great day
Glad you two were able to enjoy this awesome day of riding. Wish I could have been there my friend. Great dual vlog.
Thanks and me too….a week next year for the three of us
Your right Ohio has some amazing roads. Really great ride you both were on. This area is so beautiful
Agreed and glad you got to ride some. We will go back next year and you are always welcome to join is my friend
Peaches and cottage cheese is a favorite of mine and peaches and cool whip, sometimes too.
All our highways that start with a 5 mean curves up here. They are FUN
I love the twisty roads!
@@BoDean52 Oh yah I hear ya!!! We seek them and travel to them each weekend. Just seems after a few years you need to travel farther LOL you know did those ones, let’s go find new ones! Haha
I scoot over too when sport bikes are on my tail on backroads. Nice ride!
Thanks Monica….was a great day
Loved the scenery. Thanks for doing a great video job. I really just wanted to see the scenery and was not disappointed!
The speed you were going is ideal for those kinds of roads. Actually, the smaller the bike, the more engaging it is on those roads because you can't go that fast on something like a 250.
Gord
Thanks Gord and I did like riding around there. Heading back this year too. Ride safe
Glad to see you two enjoying the roads in Ohio :-)
Some beautiful riding around there
We have ridden hundreds of roads around the country and 555 isn't one we have been on yet. We have ridden the tail of the dragon twice and yes...over rated. Good video guys, watched HDR's last week.
Thanks folks and I hope you two are doing well
nice ride you two.
Thanks sir, we had a fun day
Awesome beautiful vlogging, riding and scenery, im going to try and do this next year, not sure if I can due to other obligations with family, but this is on my radar for sure, all the very best, really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing.
Appreciate that a ton…..some rides just stand out. Ride safe
Glad you two had a good time. That is what was important. To me it is not a destination road that I would make a special trip to get to. Roads like that all over the USA. Reminds me of the roads through north GA in the foothills. I would be flying down that road 🤘🏻
Should have showed the back part of the ride, was fun
Nice area good riding. 👍
Yeah we really didn’t have a whole lot of time to visit a lot of roads, I think you know that area pretty well right
@@BoDean52 yep need to go an spend a wk there could see so much.
Lots of nice bends and turns bro.
Thanks man, was a fun day
Its a great ride, nice to see the scenery, I missed quite a lot of it at 70+ LOL. We saw very few bikes when we were there. Of course we went in the end of the week, not much on the weekend, worked out well.
Was not a ton of people there even for us whish surprised me. I loved the road but did nit think it was that difficult. How did you like some of the others?
@@BoDean52 They were all good, some I got carried away on. I also like to take 10 months to answer questions. LOL
The up and down, over hills and immediately into a sharp turn is normal riding in southern Ohio. Hi, Jack! #ridewithjack Nice video, guys!
Thanks my friend and look forward in riding more in Ohio
That sure looked like a great ride. I watched Moose and Mike ride it and I enjoyed your views much more. Be well friends and stay safe.
Thanks Bob
I got to make it down there one day. The triple nickel has been on my list for a long time.
Awesome video 🤘 💀
Thanks and the rest of the road I did not film was much more tactical but all fun
Great video buddy
Thanks brother
Nice of HDR to remind you of the football team there in OH. 555 looks like a fun road.
He was joking because his bride loves them as much as I do
@@BoDean52 Yeah, but she’s a Penn State fan. It’s not like she’s a fan of the Big Blue. 😂
Good Ride
Thanks
I've been to the Dragon, back of the Dragon and 555. Back of the Dragon is my favorite, it's a little tighter than 555.
I need to ride that
Looks like you and HDR had a good time up there in Amish country! Good video dodging horse apples!
Haha horse apples….was a fun ride
The way I like to ride the triple nickel is from Zanesville south to the Ohio River to Marietta get lunch and then head east on state route 7 to state route 26 north through the Wayne National forest. Rt 26 is more twisty than 555 but it’s in the national forest so less homesteads. 26 will take you to route 800 that’s also real nice and 800 takes you to downtown Canton.
When I go back next year, I am coming to you 😂. After the 555 we really did not follow any of the Windy9, know we missed a lot
Looks like a road and Great scenery . I’ve heard about the triple 5 before . Maybe I’ll make it there .
Was a fun ride and day Steve
Did you guys ride all the way down to west Virginia? Cause a saw it started there and ran all the way up to Zanesville .
Bawhahaha.
I had no idea that 555 was so popular.
I used to live down there.
I know every inch of that road from Little Hocking up to Barlow Vincent.
Good ride guys.
Thanks much and it was fun. Understand there are other roads down there that are good as well
Go Blue!!
Wooogooo Go Blue
I agree with you guys and Adam I rode the dragon and glad I have that off my list of places to ride. I think it is over rated. with that said just enjoy the ride and riide safe my friend.
Thanks Tim, always appreciate your comments. Ride safe as well!
Try the twisties on a trike! Arm strength is the key. No leaning into the curves, it’s all handle bars…
I bet and I road quads in the mountains for years
Oh man would I love to ride that with my new Bonneville. It loves being leaned right over in a curve.
Really fun road Doug
I like the way you emphasize "nickle"!
Lol, thanks I think
OH!
Fun day
Every area likes to promote their twisty roads, but the true rider simply enjoys the one they're on today, and looks for the next one to explore tomorrow.
Very well said!
Good video man, a group of us rode the 555 last year, you shown some of it but I feel like there were some very technical sections that maybe didn't make the cut of the video or something. We went through some sections that felt like a roller coaster. We came up on a man who had ran a road king off the road who was pretty freaked out we helped get him out of the ditch and back on his way. I've only rode it once, so i don't remember exactly where we were on 555. We rode the whole thing all the way to the Ohio River where it dead ends on the edge of West Virginia. The sections you shown in your video looks like the easiest parts maybe at the beginning?. I'm not meaning to be rude brother so don't take me wrong please. But there is a lot of wicked sections to that road that i didn't see in the video. It lives up to its hype imo. We are going back this fall. Take care dude, be safe! Keep up the great work we still really enjoy all your videos.
Your 100% right, my video was really n the first half, the back half was much more technical. Thanks and ride safe
Very nice ride and those guys who passed you are the ones Fireman Dan features on his channel, that just being very dangerous passing on double yellow and coming up on curves/ Have fun and be safe.
I ride fast when I'm out on roads like this.... But on public roads a skilled rider has to know when & where they can push and more importantly, where they have to back off. Sure is a whole lot of "questionable judgement" going on out there by riders. 😐
Wasn’t a huge deal but not my style….old and slow here
@@BoDean52 Well... at least you two aren't so slow you're going backwards yet 😛
Still having attended the sensitivity training class have you?
There are many covered bridges in Ashtabula county (NE Ohio)
Good to know there’s so much that we missed riding in Ohio, going back for sure
No better place bodean isn't it wyndy
🤷♂️ lol….was a fun day for sure
Roads like this one are a lot of fun because you get to enjoy long sweeping curves and also take in the scenery while cruising the roller coaster straights. Now the Dragon is a technical ride and a real workout even when riding your own ride. There's really no time to take in scenery since you've got to stay focused on the road. One technique riders should learn, especially on the twisties is called "Trail Braking". Slowing down and proper braking is very important in the twisties.
So true Dusty in the trail braking…..I enjoyed this road for sure
If you've never ridden the entire length of RT555 the southern part has tighter curves and is more challenging. When you get to Rt 78, if you go west about a mile or two there is a view that to me is the best in the whole state of Ohio. Rt78 is gorgeous and a must see for any biker.
If you like tight curves you ought to ride St Rt 56 from Athens to Circleville, another great motorcycyle road.
Did you see the "Y" bridge in Zanesville? There is a park just SW of the bridge on a hill which offers a good view. And don't forge to stop at Tom's Ice Cream Bowl the next time you are in Zanesville.
A lot of times when I just want a lazy ride I take Rt 13 from Athens to Zanesville, then rt 60 to Marietta which follows the Muskingum River, and RT 7 which follows the Ohio River for a ways back down to Pomeroy. The town of Pomeroy is built right next to the Ohio River with a large parking lot where you can sit and view the charming town and the beautiful river. On the Summer weekends you'll see several boaters out enjoying the water.
And I recommend Fox's Pizza Den on the river, they have a wide menu and the food is pretty good. Of course Pomeroy offers several fast food places like Wendy's, a privately owned McCLures, Pizza Hut, McDonalds, Taco Bell, KFC, Subway, and Dominos. There are a coulple more privatley owened like The River Roasters, and the Court Grill. I hope I didn't forget any, don't want to upset anyone.
Some interesting facts about Pomeroy, the court house is the only courthouse in the world that is three storys high and opens to ground level on all three levels.There are no four way intersetions in Pomeroy, just three way. Not counting the parking lot downtown.
Pomeroy is the county seat of Meigs County. Within Meigs county there are some really nice motorcycyle roads, like St RT 248 from Chester to Long Bottom, St Rt 124 along the Ohio River (I saw you on this one) St Rt 124 from Pomeroy to Wilksville, St RT 143 from Pomeroy to Albany. and county roads which are kept in very good condition like Racine/Bashan road which will take you from Racine to St Rt 248. Eagle Ridge, School Lot Rd. These are just some of my favorites.
Ride safe and enjoy every journey.
I did ride the entire 555 and did find one half of it more challenging. I did not see that and the ice cream place, DANG
Great video questions what com.system do you use .I just brought a sena 50's and was wondering what you guys are using .very good audio sound.
Thanks Dave and we both Sena 10c pro and Sena evo. I use it for audio to chat and add the video with a chin mounted to pro. Hope that helps.
@@BoDean52 I think it would be a useful video for alot of biker that aren't too up to date on coms. Systems for you guys to go through the setup and how to use them like pairing and so forth. Just a thought great video and great content keep up the good work 👍
Thanks Dave a great idea I’ll try to do that
Sry, I don't see what is so special about the 555, it looks like anyone of a 1000 country roads I've been down. Its a nice road and all but I wouldn't make a trip to ride it. Plus, there are too many residences, farms, cars and Amish to really hammer-on to enjoy the road properly....
Looks like you two had a great... so what more reason do you need to find a road like this 😁👍
BTW... "I'd do that" 😉
Hear ya and I would say they second half of it that I didn’t video of course was much different . I felt the same way half way through the ride
I need to go ride 555 just for real life comparison but being in Pennsylvania it looks like most of the roads I ride daily here.
PA has great roads, lived there few years!
Next time you and HDR get into the Amish countryside..."road apples" are what you need to watch out for (not horse do-do)
Great point, can see how that could be worse! I do love riding out there.
@@BoDean52 We have Amish buggies here in Central New York and that's what we watch out for (horse do-do) what I grew up calling "Road Apples". But in the Fall real apples on the road are a danger
Peaches and cottage cheese the way to go.
Hmmm….not sure about that one 😂
👍👍
👍
👍
I just rode this last weekend. The south end of the ride is very mild compared to the northern end. Unfortunately this video didn't do the road justice.
I totally agree and we talked about riding it back but it was too late to show anything. When we go back next year I’m gonna take your suggestion and ride it that way
Can't really compare the Triple Nickel and the Tail... Tail has just over 300 turns in 11 miles, while the 555 is stretched over 62 miles... 555 doesn't have the tight switch-backs, but has the vanishing road drops into 90 degree turns! Tail doesn't have the intersections like the 555 May want to consider comparing the 555 to BACK of the Dragon, if you want...
Good feedback and I have never ridden the Tail so can’t compare. Going to ride it in July so maybe I will do a follow up video. Ride safe
the amish raid the estate autions here in ohio you can't get a deal at a auction when the amish are there, they over value for firearms just so their is no nic's check on them, but they are great people n great builders. and even better friends
just seem kind of cool to stop in....not sure if us pulling up on the bikes would have been welcomed
@@BoDean52 I'm sure bikes are welcome, Amish come on horse n buggy, so long as your interested in possible lyrics buying something u might like n have money that's all really matters, although be prepared lots of people will be happy to check out your motorcycle, it's a novelty to some people that same someday they might ride, I have let kids start my bike. With their parents or granpa consent , that makes the kids day, especially if you let them twist the throttle a time or two, instant smiles all around n that kid will remember starting that harley n the sound n rumble as it roared to life forever, that's the good stuff, especially you find a kid n grandparent Checking the bike put all ready, its great memory's n time for all me included
Tell jack my wife likes cottage cheese and pineapple #ridewitjack HI
I will and I haven't had cottage cheese since I was a kid
I’ve got a toy hauler because my wife’s health won’t allow long rides on the trike, but she still likes to keep her face in the wind…
Do whatever we need to ride I say
So where's the technical section?
Not a huge technical road Jared depending on your skill level for sure. There are a few spots on it that I didn’t not film. Ride safe
Back of the Dragon is much better than tail of the Dragon
I have heard the same!
I don't like to put my video links in the comments on someone else's video, but if you're interested, I did a video from the Tail of the Dragon that touched on a lot of what you 2 talked about in this video.
Thanks for sharing my friend
555 makes me wonder if there's a 666 going to Hell. Mi. (Highway to hell?)
No there's not
Lol heat making you crazy out there
There is a state route 666 in Dresden Ohio.
