I ride 45 a lot and its one shortcoming is that there are no gas stations or convenience stores between Mifflinburg and Centre Hall. The Elk Creek Cafe in Milheim is an outstanding place for lunch though. Great write up!

But why stop there? Make it a weekend ride and continue your route past Spruce Creek. Rt. 45 intersects with 453 and a left will take you to RT.22 proceed East toward Huntingdon and enjoy Lake Raystown, Camping, Fishing, Hiking. A right at 45/453 will take you to Tyrone/Altoona. Take in a weekend Ballgame at Altoona Curve affiliate of Pirates or continue and visit Railroad museum or see Horseshoe Curve. My only negative comment would be to end your rides before dusk. The bewitching hours that bring the deer out. My experience using your photo of the incline out of Spruce Creek on Rt. 45 at the top it opens up into fields. Well I was blind sided by a deer 8/31/08 Direct impact from left side onto me and bike knocking me out in the process. Everything is OK today and I got a new bike the '08 FXSTC Harley Softail. Keep Riding and Enjoy our great scenic rides in PA ! Hey Brad, Excellent review of Rt.45 ride qualities. But why stop there? Make it a weekend ride and continue your route past Spruce Creek.
