So I am coming to DC to ride the C&O on Sept 28th 2014 I have just over a week and was hoping to ride the GAP also. The problem I am facing is getting a ride back to DC if I do the both the C&O and the GAP.The price I have gotten for the shuttle is around $300. Is there a less expensive way to get back. Thanks for your help.

Do you mind if I ask who your shuttle is? The best price I can find is $395 for my wife and I from Dc to Pittsburg. Thanks.

I am taking the Capitol limited train from Pittsburgh to DC with my bike and pedaling back. $49.00 total

That's leaving Pittsburgh for Washington at quarter to six in the morning. But then the other way from Washington you would get to Pittsburgh around midnight, so I guess the train is a toss-up.

My understanding is that the train will not take more than six bikes. I am curious about your train experience....were you able to reserve a spot for your bike?
