first time using smaller "bike packing" bags because I could fairly easily find stores and even a hotel if something failed from DC to Pittsburgh via the C&O and GAP trails... ended up working even better than expected with the unplanned PawPaw tunnel detour, I was able to ride up a fair amount of it and all the way down.
Did not have as much time as I would have liked and managed to do it in three and a half days so I had plenty of time to cruise around my old hometown of PGH
