INTRODUCTION:
Dual
Sporting Pennsylvania With Roll Charts -
These CDs contain a comprehensive guide to Pennsylvania dual sport
riding, ten roll charts (1000+ miles) I developed over thirteen
years, and five accompanying articles with photos that will enable
you to ride your dual sport motorcycle through, across, and over the
largest state forest system in the United States with only enough
pavement to refill your stomach and your gas tank. The "Rollchart"
CD has turn-by-turn directions and GPS mileage and the "GPS
Rollcharts" CD has GPS maps, GPS turn-by-turn directions, GPS
mileage, and GPS coordinates in .gpx and gdb files. The "Big
Woods" of north central Pennsylvania is a region where five
state forests join to form over 1.5 million acres of dual sport
riding paradise. The routes consist of 100-mile loops that begin and
end at one of Pennsylvania's state parks and include gas and lunch
stops. By permitting public access to its state forests, Pennsylvania
has created a dual sport rider’s heaven. It’s difficult
to improve on a day spent riding hard, eating well, and sitting
around a campfire under a sky so filled with stars that
constellations are lost in an expanse of twinkling lights stretching
from horizon to horizon. Dual sport riders that follow these ten
routes will be rewarded with unequaled views of spectacular natural
beauty and a seemingly endless supply of deserted gravel roads and
trails crisscrossing Pennsylvania’s most remote areas. - Happy
trails!

BALD
EAGLE’S BEST
This article recounts a ride with the fine
folks from the Pennsylvania Trail Riders Association. They host a
dual sport ride in the state’s only forest with a sanctioned
off-road riding area - Bald Eagle State Forest. Bald Eagle’s
196,000 acres are located in Pennsylvania’s geographic center
near one of the state's largest towns - State College, but by weaving
together the gravel roads and trails that crisscross the mountains of
Mifflin, Snyder, Union, and Centre counties you can fill two days
full of riding.
ELK COUNTRY
RIDE
These roll chart routes will take you into the heart of
Pennsylvania's elk country where you may catch a glimpse of one of
the largest elk herds east of the Mississippi River. These majestic
animals attract quite a crowd of tourists, but luckily for dual sport
riders the gawkers stay on the pavement so we can enjoy the tranquil
desolation of Elk, Cameron, Clinton, and Clearfield counties' gravel
roads. Headquartered at Kettle Creek State Park, this ride will take
you past Alvin R. Bush Dam, into the Quehanna Wilderness Area, and
onto Pennsylvania's longest dirt road - Caledonia Pike.
NO BULL
RIDE
Nineteenth-century Norwegian violin virtuoso Ole Bull tried
to establish a utopian communal village at present day Ole Bull State
Park, but the poor soil, steep mountains, and hard living doomed it
to failure. What's left are a few ruins, the natural beauty of Potter
County, and dozens of gravel roads strewn like so much cooked
spaghetti across Hammersly Wild Area, Tamarack Swamp, and Rixford
Hollow. This ride will take you into Cherry Springs, the most remote
part of Pennsylvania, where stargazers look to the heavens for
inspiration, discovery, and the next E.T. sighting.
RENOVO
RUN
This ride includes more than a half-dozen overlooks, each one
more spectacular than the last, culminating in the most breathtaking
vista in all of Pennsylvania - Hyner View. Along the way you'll go
across Cranberry Swamp, into Grugan's Hollow, and past the Boyer ATV
Area. If you do this one during the first two weeks of October you'll
be treated to a kodachromatic display of fall foliage and the
possibility of snow.
WELLSBORO
WEEKEND
Pennsylvania's finest small town, Wellsboro, lies just a
few miles from the beginning of this ride at Hills Creek State
Park.
Contained almost entirely within Tioga County, this ride is
located at the semi-developed eastern edge of "Big Woods
Country", but the attraction of the 900-foot Pine Creek Gorge
that is Pennsylvania's Grand Canyon compensates for the little bit of
civilization that encroaches on this ride. The hunger you'll work up
riding over Nessmuk Mountain, along West Rim Road, and through
Algerine and Asaph Wild Areas will be sated by the giant Dagwoodesque
sandwiches served at Slate Run's Wolf General Store. The second day
of this ride includes a late leisurely lunch on the Blackwell Hotel's
deck where you can commune with the hikers, canoers, and fishermen
that are enjoying the outdoors just like you - as you roar off into
the shadowy forests of another Pine Creek Gorge sunset.
