Default Cleveland, OH to York, PA

Hey All:
Was wondering if anyone from the Cleveland, OH area ever roadtripped to York, PA. I know all about the factory tour. I was wondering what kind of scenery, roads, valleys, mountains, etc.. you come across making that trip. Don't know much about PA and wanted to take a short road trip through the state. Any recommendations? Thanks much...

Rocky, as Jeff said take Rt 219 out of Dubois, get on 879 to Rt 453. 453 is a real fun road with alot of twisties. I just rode it last week and had a blast. You might take 45 over to Rt 322 to go into York.
&nbsp\\;Rt 6 over to 15&nbsp\\;is also nice, especially through Potter county. I rode it a few weeks ago, it was very cool riding in the morning with the fog lifting off the mountains.If you decide to go this way, stop at Northern Tier HD. It's a real nice shop. Enjoy. Timmer
