C&O Canal Video Description
In this video I answer some of the questions I had before biking the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Tow Path. It had been a long time since I biked, hiked, or camped on the path, much less the entire length of the path and I didn’t know the conditions well enough to know what bike to ride, what tires would work best, where I would eat, where I would sleep, and where I would get water.

Below are links referenced in the video. Let me know what you think or if you have questions yourself.
Enjoy
