I believe, typically, the "Ohio Tail" is referring to route 555 in SE Ohio. Ridden it a few times. Great ride. Always scratches the itch when cabin fever sets in.

Thanks for posting the route fffffish...

I ride from MD to Columbus, OH periodically to visit my brother. You just gave me a good reason to detour!!! (oh yeah, AND to visit him a little more often haha)

536 is Ohio's Dragontail. Its far more difficult a ride compared to 555, very reminiscent of Tn/NC's Dragontail.

Either are good rides, but 555 is much longer, 536 far more dangerous. Like the Dragontail down south you cannot look around while riding or you will get hurt.

The 555 is usually referred to as the Triple Nickel.
