Cheers Geordie , I thought you might have known that bivi spot 👍🏻 luckily the sun was with me on from Gilsland onwards made life much more comfortable that’s for sure 😂

I rode almost the exact route you took with a few deviations, unfortunately I chose the weekend of the great North run which I had no idea about so had to make a hasty return to Newcastle to catch the train back to Carlisle, excellent video.

@@davesolobiker5601 It was a bit tricky as I had no lights, it was dark when I got back to Carlisle fortunately a friend in our village very kindly came and picked me up. A bit more to the story, this took place a good few years ago when we lived in Fletchertown just off the A595 at mealsgate, I rode down to Whitehaven and did the traditional dipping of the front wheel in the water, unfortunately I didn't realise the green stuff on the slipway would be so slippery, needless to say the front wheel went in the water very nearly followed by the rest of the bike and me! Catastrophy was avoided just in time. The rest of my route closely followed your own , I wasn't bike packing I stayed at Once Brewed Youth Hostel intending to do the same on the return journey the next day, however as it was a case of no room at the inn for miles around Newcastle it was a dash to the station for me. Your video certainly brought back happy memories of that ride.

Great video . Didnt try for the wheelie up Banks this time..

Thanks Snowy , I’ve done very little wild camping that’s for sure 😭👍🏻

A cracking ride and I really like the minimal bivi set up, I live near Berwick and my daughter is in Newcsatle, so I'm temped to do the castle and coast route south, the trouble is you are so experienced and make everything look so easy 😁. Maybe a few local cycle overnight rides before commiting to your level rides. As always thanks for taking us along ATB Big Dave Scotland

Thanks Big Dave , go ahead and do it , sounds like a great trip . I drive trains down that east coast thru Berwick and some beautiful countryside. I’m tempted to catch a train to Edinburgh and ride down to newcastle . It always good to do a few overnight trips to test yourself and the gear ⛺️🚲👍 atb Dave

Great video Dave, cheers - I'm sure your wallet was a lot lighter for the rest of the journey after that pint in Corbridge 😂

Aye up Dave lad…anotha crackin post…luv em n keep posting I thought from ur last adventures when I picked ur channel up that I had subscribed but this time I have Love the flow of your editing and the way it picks up key points along the way and your cheeky wildcamps not just on this one but on your other adventures. Just point as a hopefully constructive comment dis me if you want…. When you stop and linger to take a panam on your camera to a point of interest such as that old mining wheel, it would be useful for something like that for you to hold the shot a wee bit longer…call me an anorak but I’m a sod for information on your or anyone else’s routes. Cheers Dave….Bessies …Ron

Thanks Ron, and for the sub again lol I always take on board my comments. My problem why I don’t linger when doing stuff on points of interest, is I am always aware of time, and I try not to drag videos out to be any longer than they are. It’s a fine balance but I will try and hold the camera for a few seconds longer, or just as easy hit the pause button. Anyway I’m glad you liked the video and thanks for the comment atb Dave ⛺️🚲👍
