Yeah, they're great craic especially whilst stoned :lol: crashing is always an option too and no they don't go too fast that just involves too much energy for my liking anyway :lol:
Hi Rufus,

About the canal bikes, r they so slow that walking would be faster? That would really irritate me on some level. I can imagine looking up at all those legs speeding by and getting nowhere -- like living in a garden apartment.

Also, where can you get a map of the canals with locks and stuff notated?
Hi Titus

The canal bikes are a great way to see the city and imo less dangerous than ordinary bikes. If peddlers are pretty much in cync then yes it's quicker than walking :) maps are provided which mark out specific routes. We didn't venture too far, simply because I can't swim and started to get freaked out after a while (too much bobbing). But as I say, yeah they are great fun, you get a totally different perspective of the city. If there are a few of you heading out, then yes, it can also be carnage! :)
