  • Rt.7, in Ohio, is generally a pretty good road. Some sections of it are 4 lane divided highway. There is a lot of nice scenery along that route.
  • The road between Rising Sun and Vevay is very rough, but no problem if you take it slow. We used to go that way to Madison and I don't remember it being a problem, but we haven't followed that road west of Vevay in the last 10 years or so.
