Comments

April 1, 2024,Muddy Worcester loop with canal closed in parts

Towpath collapsed on the Birmingham to Worcester. Possible to work around by carrying bike over a couple of stiles.

July 19, 2024,Sunny ride out

Part of the.Worcester canal path was washed out and now replaced with a wooden walkway. Will need to carry your bike up and down. The parh leading to this on the Droitwich side is very overgrown due to lack of use.
