I'm going to ride home to Carlisle from Philly for Easter next weekend, starting from the Thorndale train station. I came up with a best guess at a good route (see link below) and was hoping for some advice from people who know the area. I know the old philadelphia pike has a nice size shoulder used by the Amish on their horse and buggies, but from Lancaster to Harrisburg I just guessed at what route would have the least traffic. Anyone know of any bike paths in that area that I might be able to incorporate? Anything along the Susquehanna? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
