The directions couldn't be much easier. Just start your route in Breezewood, PA and take US 30 (Lincoln Highway) all the way to Chambersburg, PA.
Scenery
I couldn't believe that US 30 wasn't on MotorcycleRoads.com. The views on this are amazing. The mountains and the look out points are fantastic!!! I little bit of history; this is the road that Lincoln took to Gettysburg. Its a good thing they didn't have motorcycles bake then or else he might have never given the Gettysburg Address, he would have kept riding this part over and over.
Drive Enjoyment
Nice amount of twist and turns up and downs. The road seems like its maintained well.
Tourism Opportunities
Gas up in Breezewood if you need it because there is very little till you get to Chambersburg. There is a biker bar on top of one of the high points (nice view from there ... I recommend a stop here).

One of the nicest rides you will make in Pa. Rode from Latrrobe to York for Harley Open House. Enjoyed it even in the rain.

I have ridden this road between Latrobe and as far as Gettysburg..but also just to Bedford and back many times. I never tire of it. The section between Laughlinton and Jennerstown was getting a little rough but has recently been re-paved. The scenery is inspiring, the road is exhilirating and the road surface is near perfect.

Was in Gettysburg for a Heritage Springer rally. Took 30 west from there to Pittsburgh on the way home to Ontario Canada . The rally was great but that rt. 30 is awsome. Twisting and turning up one side and the same down the other side. We were loaded down and it was still GREAT!!! Be sure to stop and see the flight 93 memorial. You'll leave with a heavy heart. It's just off the highway near Somerset. *****
