This is the TransAm Express tour, a different take on a classic that should entice anyone who enjoys riding trail systems. This tour will include the full length of the C&O Canal Trail, Great Allegheny Passage, and Katy Trail with over 500 miles of car-free cycling. It will feel extra special riding this quintessential Adventure Cycling route in 2026 as we celebrate our 50th anniversary.
