Default Slant-G near the JFK/LGA Class B

In a couple of weeks, I'm going to be near KBLM (Monmouth Executive) and
I'm hoping to fly down in our club's Garmin 530-equipped P28B Dakota.
Normally when I'm flying the Dakota, I just file direct and get ready for
a re-route, but somehow I don't think that's going to fly in that part of
the country. So I was wondering what a good strategy for flight planning
would be.

When I ask Aeroplanner for an airways route, it gives me KROC GEE v147 LVZ
40deg53.25N 75deg31.40W BEERS SBJ KBLM. That's kind of strange, but I
guess that's becaused of all the unusable sectors on ABE making V613 to V6
unusable for non-GPS equipped aircraft. I wonder if I should file LVZ
v613 ABE v6 SBJ instead. Or maybe I should file direct to RBV, since it's
an IAF for several of the approaches?

What do people who fly into that airspace all the time do?
