C&O Towpath

Two hours, one minute, 28.45 miles, average speed 14.21 mph. I started from Potomac, MD on the C&O Towpath. I rode about 13-14 miles south and connected to the Capital Crescent trail. I’m not sure where I ended up, but it was somewhere around Washington Harbor in Georgetown.

C&O Towpath

The first half of the ride was not too bad. It was in the low 50s, a little muddy, and all slightly downhill. The second half of the ride was not quite as pleasant. The temperature dropped into the 40s, 30-50 mph gusty headwinds, the mud was still there, and now I was going slightly uphill. On the bright side, the trails were fairly empty. Hopefully I’ll have more rides to post as the weather gets warmer. Unfortunately we have some snow forecasted for tomorrow…
