Spinning Down the Road

"When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking."
Arthur Conan Doyle

The C and O Canal runs 184 miles from Cumberland MD to Washington DC - A pleasent spin for sure, good company with Trevor from Alaska, and certainly enough milage to get our attention.

At the last lock in Georgetown, Washington DC. A fun ride while encountering Eastern painted turtles, snapping turtles, black snakes, garter snakes, a river otter, and a host of birds.
