We got an earlier start so we could avoid the Harper’s Ferry crowds; glad we did. We knew what to expect since we rolled the route a couple of weeks ago, but today we had loaded Bobs. Once again the day was spectacular and slightly overcast. Felt great the entire time; before we knew it we were at White’s Ferry, nearly halfway into the ride. Had an early light lunch and carried on. Crowds at Great Falls were thick, but we navigated through them quickly, and, again, before we knew it we were in Georgetown at the tail end of the ride. We opted to finish along the CCT and then on to Memorial Bridge and the Pentagon to finish the tour. Awesome three days on the bike, and plenty of time to reflect on the meaning of this holiday weekend.
