Here’s a recap of Days 4 and 5 (yes, the final two days) of our bike adventure to Washington, DC via the Great Allegheny Passage and C&O Canal with KEEN Ambassador Alison Gannett. After a comfortable night in Hancock, Maryland, we literally left the beaten path and explored 65 miles of hills and hollers in West Virginia. Our fifth and final day led us on a sixty mile journey through Maryland’s horse country and past many spectacular historical and natural landmarks.
