(Day 75) West Virginia and finding the Tow Path

We stopped for food at the groceries store and as we were leaving got to talking to a guy. He told us about riding with his daughter, who was sitting in the car, on the C&O Path. Ding, it literally rang a bell, I'd heard about the Tow Path from a cyclist the day before we got into Yellowstone and from another cyclist in Yellowstone. Both had said it was the best way into DC. It'd add 80 miles to our mileage but what better way to finish the trip. We decided to go ahead and do it but first we need to get the mail taken care of. Brad had told a couple of people to send him stuff in Middleburg, VA but we'd put a different Zip code on there. After talking with the people at the post office he got a change of address form sent out that hopefully would get the mail sent to DC where we could meet it.

Rode north to Cumberland, MD

Got on trail, talked to people a BikeE owner, and a guy who was into ultra lights convinced that Charles is going to have to go in on one with me.
