Itll Break Your Stones

When most people think vacation, Pennsylvania coal country isnt usually what comes to mind. Then again, most people dont know what we know.

Winding through the mountains and scattered among the small towns here are some of the best cycling roads in the world. The views are unparalleled, the
countryside undisturbed. The roads are smooth and empty. With only a few exceptions, you will most likely encounter just 23 cars per hour. And thats just
the appetizer. Theres so much to see and do out here that were confident, (maybe even a little cocky) youll consider this one of the best riding experiences
of your life. Especially if you like roller coasters.

The Coal Cracker Ramble aint no Tour de Patticake. This is the real deal for experienced cyclists who thrive on physical challenge. The climbs are shorter than out west, but more frequent and generally steeper. If youre a tourist this may be
the hardest thing you ever do. Still, were confident youre going to love every minute of it. Make sure you bring your camera. The fresh, unpolluted air, satin
roads and sockdropping vistas will make every day unforgettable. You can travel at your own speed. Our expert SAG vehicles are always nearby.

Because this is coal country, there are no hotels. Well be camping. Because this is Scamp n Rascal, you wont mind that at all. Thats our motto, remember? Ride hard. Rest easy. Bring your tent and sleeping bag. Well carry everything. As for
food, delicious catered hot meals will keep you stoked and ready to go. Then theres the wine tasting, the catered rest stop, the paddle wheeler, Amish country
and the amusement park.

While you dont have to be a professional racer to ride the Coal Cracker, this ride is definitely not family friendly. Tandems are not recommended. Triples are.
