Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

A Rather Short Detour

On a hike in Shenandoah NP. I feel this should be on some kind of fail blog.

where is that? I'm pretty familiar with Shenandoah Nat'l Park, as I've hiked most of it and ridden all of it.

I think if you look closely at the pictures then you will see you're allowed to ride one direction, but not the other. It's one of them tricky one way trails you hear about around the campfire and in arcane forum posts but never really expect to see. If you zoomed the camera out there would be petrified cyclists with a video camera standing around it shooting awful footage of their feet.
