American Standard is a classic technical ride that is long and very rocky, not to mention absolutely beautiful. There are no big climbs but the entire ride combines to make you wish you were at Molly McGuires downing a beer. The setting is in state game lands in the pocono mountains with trees, rocks and mountain laurel. One of the best in eastern PA.
From Downtown Jim Thorpe take 209 South and 93 North to top of mountain and park along parking areas. Detailed maps are available at the bike shop in downtown Thorpe
