I changed my route recently because of the mud/slip factor of the canal tow path. I'd like to get back to going along the canal at some point (although my current route has some inclines on it which is an interesting challenge in itself!), but with my current trainers that's absolutely not happening, may give it a quick go with whatever I pick up tomorrow.
