Pennsylvania What 2-C ??
Leaving out of Detroit and have 7 days, headed Pennsylvania way. \\; The green lines along 6 in the Hog book from Warren to Scranton is the idea at the moment. \\; Then down to Hershey, and York for a couple of tours. \\; \\; Head back up to Williamsport and point it East to head home. \\;
 \\;
How tough is it to find hotels, motels along the way?? \\; Any to stay away from?
 \\;
Any "Dont miss" non-tourist traps??
 \\;
Any "dont do" tourist traps??
 \\;
Thanks!!

RE: Pennsylvania What 2-C ??
not sure what your dates of travel are.. but the Pa State Harley Rally is 7-9 August.. in Valley Forge area with rides to Gettysburg
 \\;http://www.pastatehogrally.com/
 \\;
 \\;PA 6 is a great ride..
In June I went from Scranton west to PA 15 (stopped in Mansfield at the Harley Dealer), then up into Corning NY \\; (corning has a Glass Museum).. you might consider reversing the route (parts of Route 6 wind thru cornfields.. up, down, S turns.. sometimes no shoulders.. but it's a beautiful ride.

 \\;
 \\;If you do come into Scranton, avoid I-81 from NY State line south to Scranton... It's single lane with construction..
 \\;jump over to Route 11.. it parallells 81 and is more scenic.. (connects with Route 6 for a bit)
 \\;
On route 6 Near Wellsboro is also the Pa Grand Canyon

 \\;
there's a couple of Best Western's around.. they're friendly to Hd bikers.. door front parking, rags for cleaning, and Hd discount \\; you can check their website
 \\;
Safe Ride!

we took 6 west to Coldersport PA took south PA-44 to PA-144/44 then onto PA-144 beautiful roads, little traffic, we stopped in Renova (sportsman pub) for lunch great food, then south on PA-144 to US-322. we lost our way, and missed a turn, but still arrived in Gettysburg. But you really need a week to take in that

Route 6 is a nice ride, but somewhat boring. The best riding in the state is east/south of Wellsboro to Williamsport. State forest. At Kane, Pa., after a great meal at Texas lunch, and cheap, clean motel rooms. Work your way over to St. Mary and take Route 120 to Lock Haven. One of the nicest rides in this country. At Lock Haven you can jump onto Rte 80. This is also nice in this area.
I'd miss the Scranton, Wilkes-Barre traffic and take a route south before this.
On way home route 44 near Jersy town and accessable from route 220 north to Couldesport is another nice ride.  \\; \\;
