Used the NCN routes to head down the Tyne through Tynemouth and then up the coast.

Decent weather until Blyth where the cycle route signs seem to be missing.

Long and tiring day so had dinner in Cafe Tirreno, lovely lasagne and then a pint in The John Bull, very friendly folk there.

We did an out and back ride today.

In the morning a trip over the rolling fields to Kelso and a look at the Abbey.

After an early lunch the rain was heavier so we spent the afternoon in Floors Castle.

We all had trains to catch so we cycled back to either Berwick or Tweedbank.
