    Kennet and Avon Canal path was pretty quite on a sunny Tuesday afternoon in September which was useful given that it is very narrow in places so passing people and other bikes could be an issue on a busy day

      The Kennet and Avon Canal is 87 miles (140km) long. It links Bristol to Reading joining the natural waterways of the Avon and Kennet rivers with a 57mile (92km) canal. The canal was constructed between 1794 and 1810. The construction of the railways lost the canal a lot of it's trade and it fell into disrepair in the late 19th century. The canal and path have been restored and fully opened again in 1990.

        Kennet and Avon Canal path is a lovely section with plenty of room to pass walkers, be respectful and use a bell
