Kennet & Avon You don’t have to head north to enjoy the National Cycle The bike spaces are at the very front of the train (carriage A). Network’s signature rides. The 100-mile route from Reading to The conductors will thank you for standing in the right place, Bristol, following the Kennet & Avon Canal, is just 25 minutes with your panniers already detached, and with minimum faffing from London by train. And best of all, canals try to dodge hills about: they have to explain every minute of delay. rather than going over them – so it’s easy cycling all the way. It’s far from monotonous, though. As well as the canal towpath, there’s an enjoyable stretch on Wiltshire’s country lanes between Hungerford and Devizes. Then, after passing through the centre of Bath on city streets, you continue to Bristol on the famous Bristol-Bath Railway Path, Sustrans’ first ever route. Sights along the way include the dramatic Caen Hill Locks at Devizes, the elegant Dundas Aqueduct, and the narrow Avon valley from Bradford-on-Avon into Bath. Take your camera – and a blank memory card. To slow your progress even further, you get to enjoy canal hospitality at a series of waterside inns, many of them owned by Devizes’ own Wadworth brewery.
