"My husband and I have just returned from doing your C&O Canal & Allegheny Passage ride.  We just wanted to tell you that we had a wonderful time. The staff, Larry Brock, Larry Hodgin, Chris Mullen & Arlen Hall were excellent  co-ordinators and facilitators.  Not only were they familiar with the physical trails, they were were very knowledgeable of the history and general information about the trails and localities...The food and camping accommodations met our expectations and often were better than expected. If your other staffers are as good, we will be riding with Adventure Cycling again."

- GEORGE SCHANZENBACH & EUGENIA SOWICZ, READING, PA

"I just finished the C&O/Gap tour. It was excellent...I shall recommend this ride to many."

- DAVID SIMS, CHARLOTTETOWN, PEI, CANADA

"Let me start by saying that I would not have been in the mountains on my bike were it not for ACA...I also want to thank you for the prompt, accurate information you gave me before the tour regarding accommodations...Our tour leaders, Sally and Rich...were exemplary...this tour was a significant life experience for me... one that I am sure I will use as a springboard to more tours... opening possibilities that I had previously not considered."

- GARY HASSANI, OZARK, MO

" I was a part of the Great Parks South trip this past August, and I also did the Pacific Coast tour last September, and I just wanted to thank you (and all the Adventury Cycling staff) for the awesome work you do...I just wanted to let you know how instrumental bicycle travel has been in making my life better, and ACA really has been the reason for it."

- KAMILA GWIAZDA, NORTH VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA

"I want to thank you all again for the energy and care you put into our
training [in the Leadership Training Course]. I have seldom seen workshop leaders so consistently model the skills they wish the participants to gain. I was thrilled to see that the ACA is so inclusive and is truly adventure oriented. I often find that adventure experiences are high on perceived challenge and actually quite low on actual challenge - most of the risk is so carefully managed for the participants that they don't have the opportunity to experience "the dignity of their own suffering" that has taught us all so much in life. Thanks for
reminding me to trust the experience to do the important teaching. [We] do hope to lead an Adventure Cycling tour in the future - perhaps we'll have the great opportunity to work with some or all of you in the future as well."
