- I met up with Ian again to do what will probably be our last cycling trip of this year, and what a great 4 days we had . We were having a late heatwave and dry spell after the wet summer we have had, so the plan was to meet at Darlington ride to the coast ( Saltburn-By-The-Sea) then catch a train back to Darlington pick up the trail again and head west. And steadily ride west riding through Durham , the Dales and Lancashire and heading for Hest Bank to complete our coast to coast .

Great vid, I love that Ian looks like he's just jumped on his bike after a day at work and ridden across the country, who needs who really needs all that fancy pants Rapha stuff huh?!
You won’t see any Rapha gear on this channel 😂 wear what’s comfortable I say 🚲👍
Excellent 👍🏻
Thank you atb Dave 🚲👍
Another brill vid with you 2 guys keep it up .....
Thanks, will do atb 🚲⛺️👍
Thank you for sharing your adventure! Thank you for taking me along, Dave. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it atb Dave
It’s been ages since I’ve done any bike stuff. This has got me the proper itch to do it now. Looked a class wee trip.
Yes it was a good trip, plenty of beers and laughs all the way . Except climbing the passes then we were crying 😂😂😂
@@BorderRambler you picked some week too. Was boiling. I got out at the tail end of it for a camp and that alone was sweating. Nevermind hiking or biking.
@@Moffatmountainadventures yes was boiling climbing hills , I took my summer sleeping bag and I was still sweating overnight , temps were mad
@@BorderRambler we’ll be in the winter bags in a few weeks anyway 😂
Really interesting, I don't know that area at all, I dont think I've ever been to the East Coast so thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching atb Dave 🚲⛺️👍
Was a perfect trip Dave, loved every minute, we were so lucky with the weather, catch you on the next one mate🚲⛺️🙂👍🏻
Same here Ian, a cracking trip and the weather gods looked after us yet again. until the next one Dave 🚲⛺️👍
Proper adventure that one Dave. Tan Hill is just too popular i had to wait hours for evening food when i was there a few years ago! Nice beach camp at the end before the train back👍🍺🍺
Cheers Snowy, yeah it’s a real magnet for van lifer types . Ian waited 20 mins to get served for some warm beer 🍺😂 but still we enjoyed our little trip across country in glorious weather 😎🍦🚲⛺️👍
Hi Dave,loved this trip, never been up the Buttertubs,must go and have a look, good idea for a van trip
Cheers Adrian
Thanks Adrian , buttertubs well worth a visit and it will be easier in a van than on bike 😂 atb Dave
apart from the midge all was good dave on your alternative C2C🚴👌aye buttertubs has featured in both tour of Britain & Yorkshire 💪i would love to think one day I'll be camping at tan hill heading for kirk yetholm to conquer the pennine way🤔
Thanks Geordie , it was a great trip 👍 buttertubs no good for touring bikes loaded up tho . Don’t expect a quick pint at tan hill tho 😂
You will conquer the PW as you have legs of steel , so tompo says
That looked absolutely magic lads. Best wishes from Motherwell, Scotland.
It was a great trip , tough in parts but well worth it . tfw atb Dave 🚲⛺️👍
Great adventure there Dave, the weather really makes it and them midge what a pain they are. Should have taken a tent 😂 Atb Darren
Yes it was Darren , dropped so lucky with the weather 😎 tents are for wimps 😂😂😂😂
Good trip Dave, always wanted to visit the tan hill but never got round to it, hopefulky I'll have a few bikepackung trips in next year..
Thanks Mark , just try and go when it isn’t busy but I don’t think it ever is 😂 atb Dave 🚲⛺️👍
Fantastic that Dave. That route ticked off so many places I know. We used to stay in a cottage near Barnard Castle and often visited Bowes Museum with the kids. Then I think I recognised Sleightholme Moor, between Bowes and Tan Hill, then of course my beloved Yorkshire Dales. Looks like the weather was kind for you too. ATB, Chris
Thanks Chris , we certainly lucked out with the weather on this one , we passed through some beautiful places along the way too. Plenty of hills also 😂😂 TFW atb Dave 🚲👍
Nice film! I did Way of the Roses a few weeks ago so it was nice to see Eric again 🥰 The route was really great, but I think I prefer your idea of knitting together your own unique route. Really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing 👍🏻
Thank you , yes we just sort of made it up 😂 but still put together is a coast to coast route . Eric still looking good . TFW atb Dave 🚲⛺️👍
Superb adventure this one, loved the camping spots, tan hill was a beaut. Nice set up there Dave, really fancying this type of thing. Enjoyed and thanks for sharing, Atb mate, Dave
Thanks Dave it was an enjoyable trip that’s for sure , hard work on the hills tho 😂 I’m now playing catch up with everyone’s videos . TFW atb Dave
Niiice! I'll watch this when I get home tonight 👍🍺🍺🍺😎😎
Loved the video, keep up the good work. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it , until the next one atb Dave 🚲⛺️👍
Looks like a good bike ride. Still cant make mind up on a Adventure bike. Been looking at doing The C2C might do a some my own route to.
Thanks Richard , we just made this route up into a c2c type . Any road/touring type bike will do the job for attaching gear for camping etc
