We started at White's Ferry (near Poolesville) and went up to Point of Rocks. The bridge is the (help me here, Tam) Monocacy Aquaduct over the Monocacy River, just before it joins up with the Potomac.
Yup, Monocacy. I like that top pick, Regina, cool angle over the handlebars.

I was actually trying out some new 700x30 'cross tires I had picked up recently. Not a huge difference from the 32's I usually ride, but they felt nice 'n' smooth on the towpath. I definitely need to try them in some mud

Withm, where are you located that you could join us? I ride the C&O very frequently, so there'd be plenty of opportunity to join either just me or a group of us for another towpath ride. We also talked about getting together for kayaking sometime this summer, if you'd be interested in that. Keep your eyes peeled on the Mid-Atlantic section of the forum.
