Day twenty Five, state college pa to frostburg, md

Did I say yesterday does it get any better regarding hospitality? Today kicks off with Frank, Deb and Kim taking us all out for breakfast at the waffle shop, OMG for good value, about $5.99 for a breakfast you can barely finish, bacon , eggs, hash browns etc and someone had waffles and maple syrup……..honest. Farewells to Kim, Frank and Deb after breakfast and back on the trustie stead’s.

Right,, so today we headed south toward Maryland but left State College on Route 46, a minor road that pretty much parallels interstate 99 but a few kms east, through Pine Grove Mills and Spruce Creek, snuck onto Route 22 to keep the same distance from the interstate, so this takes us through Williamsburg and later across to Martinsburg, heading toward Woodbury and Loysburg.

This was another awesome ride in backroads Pennsylvania through stunning dairy country and just nice, low traffic column rural riding, mint weather conditions with sun and temps in the low 20’s…….another beaut ride, and a much more pleasant way to head south to Maryland than on the interstate, I’m picking their are probably locals that haven,t taken these roads either as everyone uses the interstate. I am loving Pennsylvania, the riding is almost reminiscent of good old kiwi land dairy countryside.

After riding through Loysburg gap, we came out at Everett and looped back to Bedford town and went up to have a wee look at old Bedford village just to get another covered bridge photo, but the village was worth a look, a bit what Bedford might have looked like say In George Washington,s day.

It was only another 70 odd kms from Bedford down through Cumberland to our accom for the night in Frostburg.
