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).

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.

live close to rt 30, so i have been on it many times. you have to go west of breezwood to ligonier. small towns and a lot of mountains to go up and down with some great views. i think its the best part of the ride. the flight 93 memorial site is about 20 miles east of ligonier, a must stop. once you get to chambersburg the road gets crowded. a great stop to eat is jean bonnet tavern, just west of bedford, at the intersection of rts 30, and 31. the tavern dates back to the 1700s

We rode this with our touring group last year on our way to Gettysburg. We stopped at the Flight 93 Memorial in Shanksville, Pa. A must see. From there the road just twists and turns, each view better then then the last with the view from the Mountain House the best of all.
