First Tour (Sort of)

[jsdilks]

It may not be much of a tour for some of you, but DH and I just took a weekend trip up the W&OD bike trail on the tandem. On Friday afternoon, we did 39 miles up to Leesburg, VA with a little head wind and threat of rain all afternoon. Except for a brief shower when we were already taking a little break, we managed to stay dry. On Saturday we did a little loop up to White's Ferry and a mile or two on the C&O. Then back today. Two nights at the Norris House B&B in Leesburg and some nice dinners out helped out. Some lessons learned, but that's for another time.

Pretty soon you'll do another little bike trip...Fall would be a great time with all that leaf colour.

Glad you had a great time.

Congrats! Sounds like it was a successful first tour? I don't think you can say "sort of." If you rode your bike somewhere, stayed the night, and rode back- it's a tour indeed!!! I can't wait to hear more about it!

Hey that sounds great! Now you have put ideas into my head; I think I might do the same this fall.

Congrats! You both look like you are having fun and having fun having fun together.

I don't much care for the WOD but the Norris House looks pretty nice.
Have you ridden the canal much?
