Hadrian's Wall Cycle Route

A leisurely three day cycling tour going west to east on route 72 between Burgh by Sands on the Solway and Wallsend on Tyne with pals Andrew,Pat and Denis.
On the first couple of days we were riding into a gusty headwind when traversing the higher ground, but the much threatened rain only materialised for a short while at the beginning of our final day from Hexham.
I didn't take any photos but here's a link to some ,mostly taken by Pat with a few by Denis, which I've edited into a photo album.

Kershopehead Bothy and Glendhu Hill

A Monday night stay at Kershopehead Bothy just on the Cumbrian side of the Border,with my pals Philip and Andrew of Merrydown fame,with an ascent of Glendhu Hill on the Northumberland border the next day before the walk back through the forest to the car.

Here's a link to the photo album 

The burn was up a bit for our crossing back over from the Scottish side
