Marietta Madness 2025
Meet: Friday, 05/15/2025 @ 9:00 AM
Where: McDonald's, I-70 exit #96, Mt Comfort Rd
Depart: McDonald's @ 9:30 AM
This year marks the 17th Annual Marietta Madness when Indy Miata returns to Southeast Ohio’s incredible assortment of roads the weekend of May 16-18, 2025. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to visit one of the premier Miata Playgrounds in the eastern US. The advantage to these roads in Southeast Ohio is very little traffic, and smooth, wide asphalt roads. But Marietta isn’t just about the roads. The town of Marietta has many fabulous attractions, and some very unique shopping and antiquing opportunities. For more information about Marietta and southeast Ohio go to www.mariettaohio.org where you’ll find information regarding Lodging, Restaurants, Shopping and Area Attractions.
On Friday, May 16th, we'll gather on the eastside of Indianapolis for a 9:30 AM departure eastbound on I-70. We'll stop on the SE side of Columbus for a 45-minute Gas, Food and Bio stop. After the quick lunch stop we’ll continue on, seeking out the curves and scenery that the area is known for as we weave our way towards Marietta.
Saturday morning, we'll gather early in the parking lot of the Fairfield Inn & Suites for the BIG SATURDAY DRIVE , departing at 10AM. Anticipate a full morning and afternoon of absolute driving bliss, with a stop for a picnic lunch (which we’ll gather on the way) at the Hannibal Locks and Dam along the Ohio River. After lunch, continue with the group for more enthusiastic driving as we find our way back to Marietta, or perhaps head off to do some exploring on your own. If you’d have your fill of curves, take the leisurely 45-minute drive along the Ohio on SR7 into Marietta to do some shopping or just relax. Saturday evening, the choice is yours – head out on your own or make plans with new and old friends for a group dinner at one of the many great restaurants in town.
Your Sunday is open… Sleep in, explore Marietta or plan a return trip on previously driven roads or find a new route! Inevitably, a small group will usually form a caravan back towards Indy, many finding one last thrill by running State Road 555 – The Triple Nickel – north from the Ohio River at State Road 7 to Zanesville, where I-70 will put you just about 4 hours from Indy. And don’t forget to stop in Chesterhill for a yummy breakfast at the Triple Nickel Diner!
Make your plans NOW to join us for a weekend of exciting roads set in a scenery of beautiful hills rolling down to the Ohio River. Go to our home page and register for Marietta Madness '25 today!
