Blimey,that is close to home ! Trying to think where on the canal that is,i'm guessing past Kellogs towards the Trafford Centre which is not the best part of the tow path.

RIP.

I hope the police have it right. Last year I stopped using a local length of canal as part of my commute after three lads made as though to push me in as I went past. They miss timed the lunge and I sped off. It shocked me though, it was dusk and there was nobody in sight apart from the four of us. I just didn't like feeling so vulnerable.
I just googled "cyclist pushed into canal" and was shocked how often it has happened.

Very sad.
