I rode large parts of the C&O on a LWB Rans Tailwind. Between the LWB frame and the nice cushy Rans seat that was probably the smoothest ride I've ever done on...

While thinking about side trips - I was wondering how many people realize a short (1/3 mile off the towpath at Point of Rocks, MD) - is the most photographed...
There are more photographs of Point of Rocks than Grand Central Terminal in New York? Or even Washington Union Station? Or if we limit it to Marlyand, what...
As much as I like Point of Rocks, what's the evidence for your claim about it being the most photographed train station in America? I would think Union Station...
My sincere apologies to the list - The statement should have been: "Point of Rocks Train Station - reportedly, disputedly, and arguably the most photographed...
Oh Good Heavens !! This is just a person trying to drive traffic to a great place to visit. Lets not over analyze it. There is no evil intent here. Just go...

Bike theft is certainly an issue in DC, but I don't think it is any worse than any other large metropolitan area. If you are visiting the major sites on the...
 Any bike that is new and is in mint condition is a high value target - even with a very expensive and good lock.  I've painted my bike so that no one...
Thank you Tom. The most... is not my creation, but is repeated by other organizations far higher than our Ruritan Club. This had been repeated that I...
