The Royal Canal Way (most of the way) back to Dublin

"Take the Royal Canal Way all the way from Mullingar to Dublin." is what we were told. Checking the map it seemed like a great idea: minimal hills, direct and no traffic with which to contend. The reality, however, interfered with our intentions.It deteriorated from a well paved road, to roads that were more pothole than road to a hiking trail onwhich we had to lift our bikes over the many gates. Although curious as to how the conditions could get worse, after about 40km we headed onto the noisy national roads and in to Dublin.
