    Tips

    July 23, 2020

    Ashton Canal is kept nice and tidy. There are a few pot holes that need avoiding but the scenery is quite pleasant. Most of the architecture is restored Victorian.

      Lovely spot

        April 2, 2022

        Pros - nice scenery, traffic-free, generally quiet

        Cons - regular dismounting, can get very narrow in places (ride confidence required), quite a bumpy ride (would not recommend road bikes or MTB's without suspension) - could do with releasing a few PSI of air if you have a pump to re-inflate once you leave - look out for glass/debris at exit points (and a fair bit of bird poop along the way!)
