322: Return to the C&O - Preview + Day 0

We're baaaaack! Our old friend the C&O Towpath has been waiting on another through ride, so let's take advantage of some nice weather and do an early spring ride! On this edition, we preview the ride then just go ahead and share Day 0's train to the trailhead in Cumberland and the post-sunset ride to our first camp! Return to the C&O - Preview + Day 0 The ride preview 3 days, 184.5 miles - Cumberland to DC Amtrak to Cumberland and ride back Fully loaded on the Safari 2 nights camping, 1 night roofed at the cabin Day 0 plans are up in the air for camping Cabin night 1 with a pickup in Hancock Harpers Ferry/Huckleberry Hill night 2 Weather looks hot to start, more unstable and cooler later Biggest barrier is the tunnel outage in Paw Paw, but the construction crew is supposed to have a shuttle (which is new). I'm skeptical... we'll see! New panniers! End of an era with the orange ones moving to Brompton only, but a new one begins with the blue ones!   Statistics Miles trained 140ish Miles biked 7?
