I'll be in State College the last weekend of July for my son's baseball tournament, but my training plan calls for a 4 hour ride that weekend (Only 2 weeks before my first HIM.)  Can anyone recommend a good route in the area about 60 miles long?

Here are a few for you to consider:

Black Moshannon:

(not as long as you requested, but has some pretty wicked hills, so you might want to balance it out.  It's a fairly popular quad-builder)

Howard Divide:

(a nice scenic route, but the map can be a little difficult to follow)

PA Furnace:

(this is an easy map to follow, plus it's mostly rolling PA-style hills.  I like this area.  Haven't done this exact ride yet, but I have ridden most of the roads and I can tell you it would be a nice ride)

Thank you for all the suggestions!  Now I just need to decide which one to do.  Smile

I'll be in LP, but if you'd like the email of a guy who organizes a group i ride with sometimes, let me know (they are more social riders, but they are a bit faster than me so i always had to work).  Also, if you narrow it down to 2 or 3 rides from mapmyride, feel free to PM me and ask for feedback if you want it.  I'm pretty new to cycling, but have been training for IMLP, so i've done a good bit of distance around here.
