I rode up to the peak of Spruce Knob, WV yesterday and back home. 649 miles total. The WV 47 road and route up Spruce Knob had amazing 15 - 30 MPH marked curves with almost zero road debris or issues with the pavement in the turns.

If it ain't too much trouble, I would love to know the whole route you took.

I used the Scenic app on Apple phones To generate the route avoiding highways on the way down with a quick detour on OH 555 in Zanesville on the way out. The route back allowed highways, but included the best roads I encountered in WV getting back to larger 4C471357-8C48-47EA-962B-0BBB323C3756.thumb.png.72628b1c36df565de35e6585bcefbbe7.pngroads.

I agree. I just picked up a 2010 Honda VFR 1200F as a second bike. I’ll have to try the SE Ohio and WV roads with that bike. Much more sporty position and about 65 more hp than my 2007 Honda 919.

I don’t recommend driving through Chicago at any time. 98 degree weather is especially bad. The information is from the scenic app. Anything over the speed limit must be a glitch. Notice the extremely slow speeds for my entire trip through Chicago. I probably stopped completely 50 times.
