Final Day 3 Recap/Video - Rainy/Muddy

Today was a challenge with all the rain and mud.  Several sections of the trail were barely passable.  But it was nice to complete the three day journey.  I highly recommend it and hope to do it again next year.  Here's a video recap of today's ride.

Day 2 Recap/Video

The trail conditions were excellent today. I rode 68 miles from Hancock, MD to Harper's Ferry, WV.  Here is a video compilation of today's ride. I had to break it up into two YouTube links due to video size.

Day 1 Recap/Video

Had a great ride today from Cumberland to Hancock. The weather was perfect. The only issue was that my gear was very heavy on my rack which concerned me much of my ride.    Here are some pics along with a video compilation of today's ride.  60 miles in the books. 125 to go.

Dodging the Weather Forecast - Starting Thursday Morning

The Saturday/Sunday weather forecast is a bit uncertain with potential rain both days, especially with Hurricane Matthew making its way up the coast.

Thursday and Friday look good, so I've decided to start Thursday morning and get the first two days in.   I'll need to play Saturday by ear.
