Ride of the Season

Friend Joshua and I decided, since the day was gorgeous and we had no commitments, to see what the end of the W&OD trail looked like. Here's proof!

The totals?

That includes three detours: one construction-caused outbound which involved a bunch of unexpected hills, then one unforced navigational error which included a two lane road with cars passing us at 55+ mph, and finally the exact same construction zone in the opposite direction. Fortunately, according to Joshua, the construction zone had fewer hills on the way back.

Joshua and I have decided to stop listening to me and Joshua. Those two guys talk us into silly things and then leave us holding the bag.

Those are for another day. We've actually been to that end of the trail a few times, it's closer than Purcellville. Maybe next year we'll go end to end. You up for it?

Can we take your little bikes down some real hills? Hills with rocks, roots, and other pointy sharp things.
