Wondered if its as nice as the write up!

Hopefully will be cycling it soon with a couple of friends, if anyone wants to come along (more the merrier) just let me know and ill pass on time and date.
(after, will be going to Westbury from Devizes incase anyone else needs the train to get home)

I've done it as far as Dundas aqueduct (between Bath and Bradford). It's very nice!

Done it in the other direction, was quite nice. You wouldn't want to do it on a skinny tired road bike though.

I've done it in the other direction from Dundas, nice ride. I keep meaning to do it the whole way to Devizes (or at least to the Caen Hill locks) but haven't got around to it yet.

The whole ride from Gloucester to London is excellent....

Yes. it's great, and will be soft underfoot at this time of year too, so a bit more comfy than the wash board surface I encountered.

It is a lovely route. Parts of it near Devizes can be muddy but it is very scenic. As Cunobelin has said, the whole route is lovely.

thanks for the info, from what im guessing i would need a mountain bike this time of year instead of a hybrid? Im also guessing that there are some suitable places to stop for 'eats and drinks'.

Hybrid would be fine and there's plenty of places to get food & drink.
