Hello, this is Keith, along with my wife Cathy. You were so kind to post the picture of the four of us! Yep. LOL. We made it to Pittsburgh and then back to Cumberland via Amtrak. I have your video on pause while I'm typing. The video is great and has me thinking of doing the entire trail next year. I sent the video link to about 7 of my friends and family! Take care...Keith

Haha!!! I was waiting for your comment!! You guys really made my day! You should totally do the whole trail. A lot of people worry about the C&O being rough, but they have resurfaced a LOT of it and some of it is even smoother than the GAP. Hopefully they will have it all resurfaced in the next couple of years. Thanks again for watching and I loved meeting you and Cathy! I’m giving you a follow!!

So Nice to see you and your Father out for another Cycling Adventure! I do not know how your Dad was able to ride without a Helmet, I feel naked without mine,. With over five decades and tens of thousands of miles of cycling touring under my butt, I can say the three times I have fallen I was traveling about three miles per hour and loose sand and wet clay allowed my front wheel to slip out. Each time I saw stars after my head hit the hard ground and was glad I had the Helmet on.

I love watching your videos, my mom and I did our first tour last year and we started on the GAP, at 2:13 the baseball field we actually took cover in the dugouts after a tornado warning and wind/rain was insane! So we stayed in that town, the hill going up into the town was insane and my poor mother way crying the entire way 😂. Then the next morning we had one of the best Omelettes we’ve ever had (perogi omelette, mashed potato/cheddar cheese inside, with kielbasa on the side).

This was so cool thanks for taking us along it brought back memories of basiclly growing up in Brunswick at the campground about every weekend , as a kid I rode many a miles in that hilly town on my bike . I would so love to be able to take a trip like this I have two bikes , a Giant Sedona and a Giant Cypress , the Sedona has 26x2.1 tires so it would be my bike of choice the Cypress has 700c tires . I tow my dog behind the Sedona in his little pet trailer so finding places that alow pets overnight would be my issue and I would be doing it by myself so that wouldnt be as much fun either , anyhow thanks again this was so enjoyable .

Congrats on finding the zero mile marker for the C&O. It can be pretty tricky to locate and it would be nice if there was signage from the traditional path along the canal to the marker. I live in Northern VA so this spot usually signifies the end of the ride for me. I have never done the credit card tour along this route as I just really prefer to camp whenever possible. I also haven't been back to the trail since they re-opened the Pawpaw tunnel. I had to hike-a-bike over the mountain detour on my last trip, which was zero fun with a fully loaded bike. The ride down the backside was pretty fun though. I look forward to watching you next adventure.
@aspenswanderings
@aspenswanderings 6 ай бұрын
Yes- that Paw Paw detour was what kept me from riding it again over them past few years. This was actually my first credit card tour! Honestly, I’ve always kind of turned up my nose to it, but it was actually really fun and I didn’t feel like it was any less of an “adventure”. Definitely more expensive, though. Dad had heart surgery in October, so we decided to take it easy on this trip. Thanks for watching!!!!

Thanks for your amazing Videos. I am a newbie in this space having just started a channel and am embarking on several big rides starting in Western Australia.

@aspenswanderings
@aspenswanderings 2 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for watching!! First off, the fact you ride handcycle is so cool and a good reason by itself to start recording! Honestly, I’m such a stickler for the weight of my gear, I only use my iPhone to film. I couldn’t justify bringing a big camera, plus extra batteries to charge, etc. I don’t use any extra microphones or anything….just my phone. Sometimes I will go in and edit the colors to make it look a little better. My advice- get varying types of shots (normal, slow motion, time-lapse) and get more shots than you think you will need. I do like to carry a little phone tripod with me to set up and get shots from the side of the road or something other than selfies. As far as building a following and building up your channel- I’m obviously still working on mine, but make sure your videos are long enough to get your watch hours (I believe you need 4000 watch hours to get monetized, but double check me)…but you don’t want them so long that people get bored and stop watching. Also- when you post a video- be sure to include a catchy title and it will give you the option to add tags- add as many as you can that might help the algorithm. Lastly- make sure the cover photo for your video is interesting and something people would want to click on. It really matters. You can see where I’ve tried out several different templates…still haven’t figured out which works best. Oh- and make sure you post consistently. I’m doing a poor job of that lately because I haven’t done anything exciting for a while!! Haha!!

Nice! Do you know if D.C. to Pittsburg on the trail is very slightly uphill? Or do the elevation changes east to west versus west to east even out, to make riding either way about equal? Just curious. I rode Wisconsin's Elroy-Sparta trail a few years ago, both ways, over one weekend, and was surprised to note how the gradual elevation increase one of the ways almost did me in after already riding for 25 or 30 miles before I hit the trail.....

@aspenswanderings
@aspenswanderings 3 ай бұрын
There are probably definitely some companies that organize a trip like this, but I did not personally use a company. I am also not from that area, so I understand not knowing where to start. BUT- it is very, very doable- -Park at Grant Street Transportation Center in Pittsburgh. It’s a mile from the trailhead, and you can take bike lanes to get to the trailhead (just follow a GPS). -Book all of the places ahead of time- we loved where we stayed at other than Donge’s Drive In. Instead of that place, stay at Yoder’s Guest House. (Not sure why that is crossed out) -Book a train from DC to Pittsburgh ahead of time and book tickets for your bike too. If it doesn’t show an option to add bikes, that means it’s already full and you will have to pick a different day. All you do is show up and check in, and wait for the train. The Amtrak workers will tell you what to do. The train station in Pittsburgh is a 2 minute walk from Grant Street Transportation Center. Don’t let all the logistics scare you- just use the towns/lodging in my video as an itinerary. The key to not stressing about it is booking it all ahead of time, and just doing it!

I definitely prefer west to east. I really enjoyed the 20 miles or so of downhill into Cumberland compared to riding it in the opposite direction. I honestly found ending in D.C. easier than finding my way around Pittsburgh. The trail isn’t signed very well when you get closer to Pittsburgh when heading east to west. And the C&O rolls really well riding west to east, as you’re losing elevation. It’s very slight, but makes a big difference.

You don't have to box a bike to ride Amtrak?
@aspenswanderings
@aspenswanderings 3 ай бұрын
Well, it depends. When you buy your ticket, look for an option to add a ticket for your bike. If it gives you that option, you don’t need a box and they just hang it on a secure rack in the luggage car. If there isn’t an option to add a bike ticket when you’re purchasing tickets, that means all of those spots are full- they do reserve some walk-up spots (first-come-first-serve). If the spots are all full, you would need a bike box. Usually if the spots are all full, I just look for a different day/time so I don’t have to mess with a box. Not all Amtrak trains have bike storage racks, though, so it just depends on the train.
