I've wanted to bike to DC for a while, but there never seemed like a
good opportunity to do so. Once we purchased the tandem bike, and
started thinking about the possibility of biking all over the country,
the Washington trip seemed like a good first step.
The trip did
get shorter over time, and originally other people were going to come
with us, but everyone backed out at the last minute.
I thought it
would be best to start at the highest point of the trail, rather than
biking all the way from Pittsburgh, in order to avoid the uphill climb,
and also shorten the trip from 334 miles to 207 miles. And to avoid
Heather having to drive in downtown DC traffic, I shortened the other
end of the trip by 8 miles as well.
