Rochester - Ellwood City PA Bike Route

Overview.
This is a 30-mile out and back, fairly flat, on crowded busy roads, mostly in Beaver County.

The route starts in Rochester, PA, near Denali Bike Shop. It follows Route 18 north through New Brighton and Beaver Falls, with a turn east at Koppel, crossing the Beaver River, into downtown Ellwood City.

The turnaround point is the Burger King, (water in the drink dispenser and rest rooms). Other drink opportunities are the Koppel convenience store, and a Sheetz on Route 18 just north of Geneva College.

On this route, where Route 18 intersects the PA Tpke there's an awful lot of glass on the shoulders, I've had a few flats there.
