I'm considering an electric scooter as most of the journey is along the canal towpath!
Probably better with an electric mountain bike tbh, sounds a great journey to work, unless you skid on ice and end up in the canal!

Ditto - sounds like a bloody great journey to work.
I'd be on a gravel bike and get the shower at work. Saving on fuel and car wear & tear, saving on water and enegry bills by having a shower
at work and upping your health and fitness on the bike. 9 miles you should be less than 30 mins, that + shower at work you'll be well awake and
ready for the day!

Unfortunately, having spawned a 3rd time we've had to buy a heavy Ford S-Max diesel which gives nowhere near the above figures.
My brother had an smax diesel, the 2.0hdi engine, same as my Peugeot but 16v had, he easily got 45-50 packed full of stuff
