Geometry Puzzle - Grid and Circle

You have a sheet of graph paper and a compass. Draw a circle that passes through more than 8 grid intersections. Specifically, draw the smallest possible such circle.

For example, the following circle only passes through 8 grid intersections, and so is not a solution. 

To post your answer, just post a comment with the radius of the circle (please do not post an image).  For example, if you were posting the example above as an answer, post "r=square root of 5" or similar text.  I will post the correct answer (and winner) as another blog post.

(FYI, this has also been posted on Facebook.  Facebook comments will also be in the running to win.)
