Nearing the end of training and quickly approaching the main event. Since May my weekends have pretty much been spent riding my bike in preparation for RAGBRAI at the end of July. Last weekend we finally had an opportunity to ride outside of urban and suburban trails around DC. We booked a campsite at Rocky Gap State Park in western Maryland. On Saturday we rode 60 miles along the C&O Canal from Cumberland to the Paw Paw tunnel. Sunday we rode the Great Allegheny Trail from Cumberland to the Eastern Continental Divide, a 24 mile climb. The good news? We ended the weekend with 24 miles of downhill!
