Rt 555 can be a dangerous rd. 3 people died on motorcycles on that route on the section close to the Ohio River in 2016. There are many small farms, houses and driveways on a rolling hill section that makes for many blind entrances till you come right upon them. I stayed at my brothers house in Little Hocking that summer and found many good riding areas surrounding the whole region. That is one preferable thing about riding us129 (Dragon) you can see both sides of a switchback on those gentle rolling hills with no farms, houses or driveways for 11 miles. The danger there is all the new young riders that are trying to prove themselves with their new bikes.
