Written Directions

Northern end starts on US 6 at Galeton, PAAbout midway you run through Renovo, PA, an old railroad town with a quaint restored hotel, Yesterday's Restaurant & Hotel. Great place to take a break and grab a cold drink and a sandwich. Also about the only place to get gas. The southern end, for the good riding part, is in Moshannon, PA and PA 53, just off I-80 near exit # 147. North of Renovo it's more sweeper type roads, south of Renovo is the tighter twisty stuff. Great road, if you're in the area you need to run it once for practice and then again for the fun.

Scenery

It's hill country Pennsylvania. The road is the scenery. But there are quite a few places to stop and enjoy the forest and views.

Drive Enjoyment

Enough curves for anyone. Want more fun? Run faster. Very little traffic and the road is clean for the most part.

Tourism Opportunities

With Renovo about half way, you don't need any amenities. Stop at the historic Yesterday's Restaurant & Hotel on the northern end of town for a cold drink and sandwich.

Motorcycle Road Additional info

This road is one of the most enjoyable roads I've been on in Pennsylvania. Plenty of curves, nice sweepers, run along the crest and running through the forest. At 75 miles total length with Renovo about midway, you have about 30 miles on either side of town to just run.

Very enjoyable. Good mix of turns, straight areas, and elevation changes. Six of us rode it together and all had a great time.

I rode this route, among others September 2017. This was may favorite stretch of road in the 800 miles I rolled on in three days in NY and PA. I visited the Piper Aviation Museum in Lock Haven and then had lunch. I rode 120 out of LH and into Renovo where I fueled up. I picked up 144 and rode the nicest 40 miles of my trip from there to Galeton. The pavement was all good and the scenery was excellent.
I plan to go back in the fall of 2018 and base in that part of PA for a few days to explore more of the road riding the area has to offer. Excellent!!
