Trent and Mersey canal.
Change of thread title - "The Boat That Guy Built - Spoiler"!
fourbanger i presume you cycled the kennet and avon canal? what it the towpath like from pewsey onwards (i imagine quite overgrown compared to devizes/bath.) p.s that barge is fantastic (all barges should have a stock of sweets/chocolates e.t.c for sale 🙂
Isn't that Paul Francis Gadd's new home?
Where's the beer?

No wonder Rosie and Jim had so many fillings.
That looks a bit Hansel and Gretel never mind Rosie and Jim

cheers dobiejessmo.am planning on cycling to reading from devizes sometime on towpath (just to see what it's like to be honest.always fancied doing it)
I saw that boat near Shugborough Hall en days ago!!
racefaceec90, I was on the tourer so I followed Sustrans 4 which went on the back roads from Devizes to Kintbury. I've done that section before and it's fine for an MTB, as dobiejessmo says really. Nice ride.
sweets are kids food.
Kev
that is simply awesome, apart form the fact my ride would end right there 🙂
it could only be beaten by a narrow boat selling cake
