Quick Ride on the C&O Canal

As is the usual pattern, Saturday is work and Sunday is play around the old homestead. Unfortunately, the weather was better on Saturday. However, I had promised the Princess Stoker a ride this weekend, and she opted for single bikes instead of the tandem. We headed for the C&O under threatening skies. We drove through a couple of drizzles on the way, but when we arrived at Noland's Ferry, things were relatively dry. The Princess chose downstream as the first direction and we rode to the Monocacy Aqueduct at the point where the Monocacy joins the Potomac. After a short break we headed back, passing where we parked to go upstream for about a mile before turning again stopping at the car. Quality time, you bet'cha.
