I was just saying to Jeffy today that I wanted to find someone to do this with before I moved! But I don't think I want to go all the way down to DC, just part way. I might be interested though if you want to start training now to get in better shape. I totally would need a better/more comfortable bike that isn't falling apart though.

I've ridden from farmington (backroads) to ohiopyle, got on the trail to connellsville and then back up to ohiopyle. I've always wanted to take it to dc but never had the time.
Going down the mountain to connellsville seems flat the whole way. Its so gradual you just have to keep peddling to keep yourself going. So going back up I figured it would'nt be so bad. It was fine about halfway up until you realize by the way your legs are burning, yeah i'm going up a mountain. Even though to the naked eye your on the flat.
Take a fishing pole.

Yeah I definitely need to start training, I am SO out of shape!
Scott that would be awesome if you could go at least part way, so far it's me and my friend Julie from LaRoche. We're trying to get people to go/ setting up a date to leave sometime this week.

I would be all about HIKING to DC. But that would probably take a million times longer to do.
A MILLION.

Barb, my friend did a bike to DC and he really loved it. I could try to get you two in contact with each other if you're interested!

Jen, do I know this person? I know I can talk to Little Erik and Pooch about the experience etc.. Scott K, come riding with me a bunch so we can both get into better shapes!.... like triangles.... Scott mentioned maybe going part way, that could even be cool if you did that!
