Interstate Road Trip Tournament, Round 1, Heat 5.
 
Just a little offseason exercise. There are 80 different Interstate highways in the USA (including Puerto Rico). Which one would be best for a road trip?

I've set the rules as follows (in spoiler for those of you who've read them already]:

Spoiler!


Your next two competitors are:

Option 1 - I-83 from Baltimore to Harrisburg
7 Day Trip
85 miles, 12 miles per day on average
Passes through York, PA

Option 2 - I-86 from North East, PA to Windor, NY (North East is actually the name of a town.)
267 miles, 38 miles per day on average
Passes through Elmira and and Binghamton

This is a tough one.

Trip 1. I'd probably do 5 days in Baltimore since they've got museums and restaurants, and then drive straight through to Harrisburg to see the capitol building for a couple of days.

Trip 2. (Shrug.) I'd check out Lake Erie for a couple of days, and then find small hotels in small towns for a couple of days until I got to Binghamton. Then I'd spend a couple of days there, I guess. I'm not sure what you do there, but it's probably my best shot at entertainment.

Both have the potential to be pretty drives, I guess, and I bet that I-86 is more scenic. But I'll hang out in Baltimore and hope I don't run into Ray Lewis. I-83 for me.

I'd be more worried Ray Lewis don't run into you! Know what I'm sayin?

I voted for this one strictly for the crab cakes.

This is a good thought. Personally, I broke a tooth on a crab cake once (actually, twice) so I'm averse to them.
