Looking for route from Cleveland to Parksburg, WV

I'm looking for a bike route from Cleveland to Parksburg, WV for a four or five day tour this summer. Any suggestions?

Do you mean Parkersburg, down by Marietta?

If so, you can take the O&E towpath down to around Dover...from there I'd have to do some mapping.

The Towpath gets you from Cleveland to Dover, which I think is almost 100 miles. From there it will be back roads and much hillier, haha!
