A few days into bikepacking the GAP and C&O, I realized I would have done things a little bit differently.
1. Using a compact air mattress like the Nemo Tensor would have slimmed down my rig a little bit.

2. Park your vehicle at the Grant Transportation Center downtown. It will make things much easier.
3. Allow yourself time to hang out. It’s worth spending an extra day of vacation time. Don’t cheapen your outdoor experience by rushing.
Have you ridden the trail recently? What do you think?
Hit me up with questions or comments.
Here are the bikepacking bags I used for the trip:
- The Frame Pack I use (and love) amzn.to/3Axtb6H
- The Saddle Bag I use (and love) amzn.to/3bze95H
- If I did it again I may go with this smaller version amzn.to/3y4nzO9
- I used this cockpit bag but the zipper has gone bad amzn.to/3I2JABD
