Riding the GAP and C&O Canal Trails - 2021 Part 4

In early October of 2021 I set out from Pittsburgh, PA on a journey that months before I had never even dreamed of, to ride the length of the Great Allegheny Passage and C&O Canal Towpath trails. The longest single distance I had previously ever pedaled was 20 miles. That seems like a warmup ride now.

Part 4 covers my last three days on the trail ending with the C&O Canal zero marker located in Georgetown. The video begins in Killiansburg Campsite near Shepherdstown, WV, continues through Harpers Ferry, White's Ferry, Great Falls, and ends in Georgetown. Lots of great vistas and history along the way.

I made this video series to not only provide a chronicle of my ride for myself, friends, and family but also as a guide or reference to anyone who might be planning on taking this ride in the future. I got so much information from the YouTube community when I was planning this ride and so I thought it only appropriate to pay it forward by recording my experiences along the trails.

I hope you enjoy the ride.
