Any other rails to trails fans out there? I love these trails on my bike (mostly flat, mostly straight, mostly nice scenery), and plan on biking several new trails this year.
Some of my favorites are (I live in NC):
C&O canal towpath: Nice history (with the locks and lock houses), Harper's Ferry, beautiful scenery on the majestic Potomac river, towns not too far apart.
Virginia Creeper trail: Easy 17 mile downhill ride through the woods from Whitetop VA to Damascus VA. Beautiful ride following rivers, some rapids, and nice meadows.
This year, I plan on doing:
1) the other half of the Creeper (from Abingdon to Damascus), also mostly downhill
2) the New River Trail state park (VA) on the New River
3) the Virginia Capitol Trail around Williamsburg VA
