    I believe the restriction is over 60 ft in total length. I could be wrong though

    Since your under 65 feet, the best ride to go back to I-81 will be take 29 to Route 6 West, Run Route 6 to Route 151 & turn right. Route 151 to U.S. 250 turn left. Go up Afton Mt. and at the top will be the entrance to I-64. From there you'll be 10 miles from I-81

    The 501/130 route isn't bad but that route is narrow at times while meeting plenty of logging trucks from the paper mill.
    Route 60 is a curvy roller coaster from 29 to Buena Vista while dodging log trucks.

    Route 6 & 151 is pretty wide.

    Rt. 29N to 6W . Follow 6W/151N to stopsign. Then 250W to I64W to 81N. Good for 65` or less w/ light enforcement. Time wise this is the shortest route to continue on I81 north of mm220.
