Written Directions

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).

This is a beautiful ride through the PA countryside. The history of the Lincoln Highway is worth a Google.

Take this ride in the autumn when the trees are their displaying their brilliant colors and you'll be captivated on what will greet you over the next hill or around the next corner. Just watch for deer because the rut will happening around that time too.

The only negative is how traffic can back up on this road sometimes. Leaving Breezewood, there are signs warning semi-trucks to take the Turnpike and stay off Hwy 30. However, many don't heed the warning and end up crawling through hills and twisties. Unfortunately, there aren't always passing zones so you can end up waiting a bit before a passing opportunity.

I road frim D.C. And did a loop through Breezewood, PA across Hwy 30 to Chambersburg. Left home at 1100 on sunday July 3rd. Got back home about 1730. Ate lunch at the Mountain House Bar & Grill. The "Mountain Burger" w/fries, 2 drafts, and a sweet tea was a whopping $13.40. A great ride with a decent lunch. It was nice to get away from the city for a day. Not far from Gettysburg if you wanna combine the trips.
