39 miles, out and back, nearly flat on the wonderfully re-surfaced C&O Canal Towpath.  Good for advanced beginners (who can do the distance) and above. Note: we are also offering a 28-mile version of this ride.

This ride was previously cancelled due to the extreme heat but we're hoping the weather will cooperate this time. Join us for an easy-going, moderately paced ride on finely crushed gravel along the delightfully tree-lined and sun dappled C & O Towpath from White’s Ferry to Brunswick. This beautiful ride hugging the Potomac River is a real treat and you'll likely see great blue herons and dozens of turtles lazing on the rocks. We’ll stop for lunch in Brunswick at Beans in the Belfry before turning around.  (You can also bring your own lunch.)  Heading back to White's Ferry is a subtle downhill, enough to fly back home!  All bike types are suitable. 

As with all WWO rides, there will be a leader and a sweep, and no one will be left behind.
