Being a long time backpacker and running out of friends who want to walk any distance carrying a pack, I was wondering if anyone has considered riding the appalachian trail? I don't mind solo backpacking but I think it is a bit risky for any length of time. I have been kicking around the idea of paralleling the AT on the Connie. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Why is it risky nowadays??..I mean new risks or the same one ones from late 70's....I had several friends do it but I was more of a winter guy(not as much hiking
)
