Even though Starview Road is a category 4 climb I enjoy starting a ride with it. The view of the Susquehanna Valley at the top of Starview Road is one of my favorites.

towards the little town of Saginaw, PA. My short ride today wrapped up with a quick trip through the town of Mt. Wolf, PA....the home of Pennsylvania's current governor, Tom Wolf. Mount Wolf is also the home of Northeastern Middle School, my home away from home.
