Another C&O bicycle adventure is in the books... but as always, I learn something with every tour. On this edition, the takeaways from the 2023 return to the C&O, plus a peek at what's ahead this summer on The Pedalshift Project!
1 - The
C&O Naysayers have less to naysay as the surface improvement
expands
2 - Get yourself a water purifier
3 - Sitting out vs. pedaling through bad weather
4 - Don't wait to amass gear... get out there and ride with
what you have
5 - I love we're "back" but kind of low key missing the empty
trail
6 - After the trip I checked out the road route from Point of
Rocks to Leesburg. I can't recommend it, except maybe the other
way.
7 - Amtrak is such a good way to make this trip work, and
there's rumors we might get MARC out to Cumberland too
