About this listen

We began riding the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP), a 150-mile bike trail from Pittsburgh to Cumberland, which has been a highlight of our cross-country trip. Immersed in lush forests teeming with wildlife, we enjoyed the freedom from traffic and directions, despite chilly weather and limited solar power due to tree cover. Meeting other cyclists, including an inspiring 81-year-old man on his e-bike, was invigorating. Maintained by volunteers like Linda, the GAP not only fosters a healthy environment but also boosts local economies; we relished fresh produce at Jeff’s garden stand. Reaching the Eastern Continental Divide, we reflected on how trails like the GAP can revitalize rural America and looked forward to continuing on the C&O Canal Towpath.
