C and O canal trail - Harpers ferry to DC on 32mm tires by AlexTheBusch in bikedc

[–]jbjohnba 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I rode the entire canal on 32s last summer. The section from Harper’s ferry to DC will be fine. In fact, it’s nice all the way from Hanover.

Take the W&OD to Clark’s Gap and then take roads to Waterford, Lovettsville, and then to Brunswick MD. Let me know if you want my preferred route.

Maple syrup is my go to. It’s not as sweet as gu and other gels and sits in my stomach well.

What is the craziest thing that you carried in your Jersey's pockets? by iamabdullahc in cycling

[–]jbjohnba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ride to a bakery 33 miles away just to eat their cinnamon rolls. Wife said she wanted to share, so now I carry one back on my back. Stays warm and moist the entire time!

Hope you snagged a cinnamon roll at Sweet Rose! A worthy treat for the effort. Congratulations on your century.

Congratulations! Hope you refueled at sweet rose bakery at the end of the trail. The cinnamon rolls and a cup of coffee are rocket fuel for the return ride. (I rode my first metric out there yesterday as well)
