    It is a reasonable route, we did this on the TPT in July. STraght, smooth and fast - or at least as fast as any other rail path. I did this on a recumbent withtrailer.

    Surprisingly pleasantas a whole, and comparative with some of the more urban parts ofthe Cheshire Lines.

    Confusing and poorly signposted in Maghulll, and strewn with debris, glass and occasional burnt out mopeds.

    Take your time, allow for punctures and we were warned to avoid the evenings when the yobs congregate.

    More details can be found here:

    There is also a map available from Liverpool City Council with routes.
