I really really really really really (really) encourage you to go to pedalshift.net rather than this page. Lots more bike touring, bicycle touring, adventure cycling, bikepacking... whatever we're calling it these days... there.
Concluding my western C&O loop adventure! Day 3 began
with a chilly, rainy start. The loop had to be closed, but would
anything other than rain and tunnels stand in my way?
News and housekeeping
Aaron Flores
now holds the belt and is the winner of the Jun e 2020 draft. I
came in a distant second, Guthrie third and Brock's peculiar tall
bike tour, was a beautiful unicorn that did not resonate with
you, the voter.
My bike is in the shop for some super severe work (new bottom
bracket, new fork... it's a long story!) BUT that didn't stop me
from taking my Brompton out on a super fun S24O stealth camping
adventure. That's coming at you NEXT WEEK!

Loop
Day 3 began
with a chilly, rainy start. It's hard to believe a summer C&O
ride would include anything other than hot, hazy and humid
but it was what it was. The loop had to be closed, but would
anything other than rain and tunnels stand in my way?
