Default Headed to Indianapolis, recommendations

Headed to Indy for the races this weekend from Northwest Arkansas. Any recommendations for good 2 lane roads. Want to stay off of the Interstate as much as possible.

Come in the southern section of the state and pick up SR 135. Tons of nice twisties and will run you directly into Indy. It will take you by Brown Co. state park and through Nashville, IN. Hope that helps.

If u come into Indiana around Evansville get on 66 going east its a really nice road to ride on. Stay on 66 all the way to hwy 150 turn right on 150 stay on that for a few miles then make a left on 135 and that will take you to Indy all very nice roads. Little Nashville and Brown County is a nice stop +1 on that. (66 runs along the Ohio river a good ways). These are some of the best roads to ride in Indiana. I've rode them all (almost).
