GAP and C & O Canal Video

When it comes to making and editing videos, I basically have no idea what I’m doing. I don’t have any kind of Go-Proish device, so I hand hold my Lumix endangering myself and fellow road and trail users, and making my potential audience sea sick. I’m often alone, so there are some cheesy moments where I turn the camera to my face. My videos, and especially my early videos, are way too long. I don’t expect you to watch the whole video, or even half of it for that matter.  I’m apologize in advance. I’ll do better. I promise.

With those caveats, I present this video of a little tour I did in June of 2014. I was going to Delaware on business, but I flew into Pittsburgh instead with my bike, and rode to DC via the Great Allegheny Passage and the C & O Canal. It was a bucket list item. I count it as a very fun route. I recommend it highly. You don’t need a bikepacking bike–the trails are smooth. A touring bike, a cyclocross bike, or even a regular road bike is fine. I was loaded for moose with 2.25″ wide tires. These two trails are more like squirrel hunting.
