JohnK Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Not alone in this I'll guess, I explore local roads away from the city looking for stretches that are twisty, hilly, low traffic and as deserted as possible. After a productive few hours last week I put in at a local town for food and some fuel. While gassing, up this tall kid, probably a year or three out of high school walked over to have a look and a chat with the usual questions. After I filled him in about some of the wonders of Se7ens and he was telling me he'd keep an eye out for me in the future, a friend of his called over and interrupted. He turned around and called back to his friend, "I gotta get going, I have to brand some steers." Guess I managed to get far enough away from the city. I'll keep an eye out for him too, maybe I can pick up a new skill set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scannon Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 You should'a gone with him. How often do you get a chance to brand a steer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnK Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 John K, generally where were you when this happend? I found some great roads last fall north of Dayton while breaking in the motor on my Stalker... Way East of Cincinnati on US 52 past Ripley, also there's some interesting stuff on SR 125 past Georgetown, east out to West Union and beyond. Also SR 32 to the East around Peebles and onwards to Jackson, and Athens if you're ambitious. It's been a while but old 32 East of Peebles was a real delight. Some ways past Peebles the new 32 climbs a little bit of mountain and the other side of it is some off northern Appalachia, bits of which that carry all the way to Athens. Careful on the back roads though, it's Combine season and those suckers are wide! Also, be real careful about spreading the word - the good roads I used to enjoy on my Ducati Diana got invaded by bunches of sport bike canyon racers and the locals turned real hostile, with good cause. Se7ens seem to have a natural charm that calms people down, and being real courteous when around others helps a lot, and I haven't seen any hostility. Be safe!
