Cycling on the Grand Canal.

Parts of GC thro city I will leave to others to recount their experience but my view lotta scangers till you clear the city so better to get train to at least Hazelehatch or Sallins. I am sure folk who live there are generally all are fine individuals so my term scanger to be interpreted as lads and lassies you would normally avoid in order to minimise differing interpretation of normal social behaviour . Hazelhatch to Sallins perfect. Sallins to leinster aqueduct fine. From here to Edenderry very mixed some gravel some grass but overall big tyres needed. Nice cycle though lotta nature etc.

Edenderry to Tullamore fine. Tullamore to shannon fine also. Ive cycled all of this and as I said only dodge bit is after Leinster aqueduct where in fairness big tyres will make life much more enjoyable but that said from Robertstown easy to pick up lotsa quiet roads to Edenderry if you want and from there fine till you hit Shannon Harbour
