I did much better after finding out I need to lean my upper body farther foward and over a lot more that I was. The outside arm should be almost straight and try to touch your chin to the inside mirror.

 
2 hours and 41 minutes will put you at Wolf Run State Park south of Cambridge. Some of the best most technical roads in the US exist down here, we typically make a three day weekend of it and are seldom bored with the roads. Interesting country side, a variety of roads, in Ohio you have it better than many.

Do you have your elbow pads?

Seriously, If the bike is set up well you can scrape the foot pegs easily with out getting dangerous. Make sure you have adequate run off areas till you get confident. Good luck and keep the rubber side down.
