Very nice video. It makes me want to do the ride from P'burg to DC. Anyone up for the ride this year, staying at B&Bs? Perhaps in August or September?

It appears to be a professionally produced series about the Great Allegheny Passage.

What a great video!! I don't live anywhere near there, but I would sure like to tour it one day!!! WOW!
At the end I was sad to see that Maynard had died.

My husband and I and our two kids (age 15 and 17 and just occasional cyclists) did a 5 day vacation on this trail last year! It was great. We dropped a car at one end and drove to the start. We did a lot of fun things along the way including white water rafting at Ohiopyle!

Ohiopyle is beautiful and the river is great for rafting and whitewater kayaking. I went last summer and had a blast.

My DH rode from Pittsburgh to DC last May and it rained and rained and rained. He wants to do it again when I can go, too. I can't wait. The video was really nice. (too many people without helmets, though!

That was a great video! I've motorcycled several times thru that area...very scenic and wonderful roads...and it would be great to go back and bicycle it too.
