I moved to this area 31 years ago, partially to enjoy the towpath. Many hours exploring with my dogs. It’s beautiful.
It is a great area. We hope to get back there in the near future and ride more of this great trail. Thanks for your support of our channel.
SO impressed with your videos.
Your videos are literally works of art!
Scenery, background music, AND content are all SO beautiful!
Thank you so much for making your videos, and.., for taking me with you!
Wow!! Your comments definitely made my day. Thank you so much for your kind words. We are glad to hear that our viewers like what we are doing. We hope to “see” you on our next adventure.
Love this ride and have done it many times. Peasant, flat, and peaceful (except when trout season begins!), and Frenchtown and Lambertville are great places to stop Good job!
Thank you so much for taking a minute to share your thoughts on this trail. We appreciate your support of our channel.
Beautifully done, the narration, the videography and the proper use of background music makes for a very pleasant video to watch and enjoy.
You are very kind. Thank you so much. We hope you keep watching and that we “see” you again on our next adventure.
My husband and I saw you this day! We have been waiting for you to post this video to see if we made the cut. We were stopped and having a break before you get to Washington Crossing. We ride that stretch often! I'm sorry we didn't realize it was you until you were past us. We enjoy your videos.
That’s really cool!! I wish you’d said hi. We would have put you in the video as more than a ride by….. Thanks for watching.
The Canal was only a feeder from Trenton to Bulls Island. Raven Rock Station on the Bel-Del RR
Thanks
@@Adventuresonebikes No problem. 👋
we love this trail, we can't wait until the nj side bridge is fixed ( nj side is a better trail) lunch in New Hope is great too.
Thanks for watching and taking a minute to comment on the trail. We hope to “see” you again on our next adventure.

The loop and combinaiton of trails is a winning combination.
We really enjoyed out trip to this trail. They do have it set up so that you can enjoy many different rides. Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching.
Dang-nabbit, another trail to put on the list. Wonder if I'll run into Paullette Bunyon on the trail, hehe. Another amazing video, thanks you.
Hi Don. Sorry we are adding to your list! Just wait until you see the videos that come out later this year and early 2024 from our cross-country trip. Thanks for your continued support.
Thank you. Very helpful video in determining our nest adventure.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Very Nice catch!!! I never fished in the D&R canal could you give me a suggestion where to start on the and where to parking etc, etc, ? Thanx
Here is a link to the map of all of the parking places along the canal: dandrcanal.org/about-d-r-canal-state-park/parking-areas-2. If you want to start near where we started, there is a very nice parking area along the river in Frenchtown - 3037 River Drive, 08825 Frenchtown, NJ. If you have access to the TrailLink app, you can select where you want to park and get GPS directions. Thanks for watching and I hope you get a chance to get out on this trail.
Do you guys have any problems taking your ebikes into the room with you at hotels? Or do you just check ahead of time if they allow it before making reservations?
We haven’t had any problem at all, we tell them we want to keep our bikes in our room, but we haven’t pointed out that we have ebikes. Not because we are trying to pull something over on them, just from my research, but batteries that have problems are aftermarket, or not properly monitored when charging. We only stay at Marriott properties, so I don’t if anyone else has restrictions. I guess if they had concern you could take the batteries off the bike and still put the bike in your room - just leave the batteries in the car after they are charged?
