@@ms.kayak7seas thank you for this long detailed comment that covers everything, much appreciated 😊 I usually try to keep 15-16 miles an hour and ride around 60-70 miles a day depending on the surface.
I backpacked and bike toured this trail many times. It has excellent bird watching and fishing spots. Camped at most the campsites. Thanks for posting.
I agree it's a great trail. I haven't specifically birded there but I can see that it's an excellent area for birding. I have rode this trail three times. 👍
That was very very fun! Much prettier than I thought it would be.
It really is a fun ride, adventure through history and nature wonderland 😊
Awesome trail that you were able to see those waterfalls
The C&O Canals trail is 185 miles long and follows the Potomac River. Lots of history and nature wonderland.
What a beautiful trail! So green!
It's like riding in green tunnel 💚
My gosh what a beautiful trail. Would love to try it one day.
It really is! I highly recommend it.
Shepherdstown is a beautiful town, with grocery store and laundromat. Backpackers ❤ Shepherdstown.
I agree, it's a beautiful town 💯👍
Wow what a ride!!
It really is an enjoyable trail to ride on sunny days but in rain it can get some places a little muddy.
Well done my friend enjoyed this stay safe and healthy have a good week
Thanks, much appreciated 😊
Good morning Thomas.Thanks for nice sharing
Thank you for watching!
A canal with no alligators. I would love that.
Alligators like to hang out in Florida, we have plenty of them here. 👍
I like waterfalls
Great Falls are an impressive sight and they're just 20 miles from DC
I rode thru Paw Paw tunnel. Bring a headlight 🔦.
Yes you need a headlight there but a cool tunnel 👍
Thomas , your videos are a joy to watch and listen to ! I can tell how passionate you are about the bike rides . Thanks
I appreciate that! 😊
Fun to follow along! Great views and cool history finds.
It's a great trail. It's like riding through a green tunnel 👍

Rough going under the fallen trees! But just an awesome ride! New friends here! -Joe&Sharon from RVentures
Thanks and welcome! 🤗
The C&O is great. Thanks for sharing. We are cycling near Quebec City for a couple of months. You might want to put it on your list. Canada has some great cycling and Via Rail.
I know Canada has some nice trails to ride in the future. Thanks
Planning my trip now/ waiting for my knee to heal :)
You're gonna enjoy it, it's a beautiful ride, a real nature and history of wonderland.
It looks like a nice trail. The mud looks deep in some spots. I love following your bike adventures! Thank you for the tour!
C&O Canal Trail is one of those epic trails in the US. Lots of history and beautiful nature. I keep going back there year by year. This was my third or fourth time riding it and I'm sure that next year I'm gonna be back there. 👍
@@FollowThomas it sounds incredible!
Can you give us a break down of you traveling gears

Every see any bears on the C & O ?
I don't think there are any bears but who knows maybe, it's crossing the AT and Appalachian trail has bears
where is 29:35, 30:42 ?
Great Falls, right next to the trail, 20 miles before Washington DC
Great trip. Looks like you really enjoyed yourself. Looking forward to your next adventure.
