No, it was not the DDRR but that one is on my list. I'm actually in the Washington DC area (my father brain washed me from a young age to be a sox fan) but my parents are in the Boston area. I was thinking I could go up to my parents with the wife and kids and try to do the ride. The long offroad rides I've done are on the C&O towpath which is pancake flat. I'm leaning towards using this bike because I have some experience on it and it has worked well in the past.
