Mill Hall is in a really nice area. I don't ride up there much because I'd have headwinds coming home, but I drove up and rode around marking some roads near there for a 1200k brevet two years ago.

A couple of years ago I took my model Piper Cub to Lock Haven for "Wings over Piper." It was too windy for me to fly though
