Riding the canals is good fun- I have always enjoyed going from Limehouse basin up along the regents canal, stopping off in Camden to visit the second hand book shop (just off the canal), then stopping at little venice to read and have a coffee. This does require sunshine however!
The Halfords gang is in the majority, but any bike is fine as long as you bear in mind that it will be a slow paced ride- in places it is narrow, and if you rocket up behind people out walking dinging your bell furiously I will side with them if they push you in the canal.
