Border March

Description

305km cycling event starting from Alnwick. Controls at Bellingham, Newcastleton, Eskdalemuir, Kelso and Alnwick., plus 1 information control.

A clockwise route around the area of the old Border Marches. If you want great scenery, very quiet roads and some good cafe stops this ticks all the boxes.

Start and finish in Alnwick, probably the 24hr McD's to finish. It's not a flat route but other than the lumpy bit between Newcastleton and Eskdalemuir the rest of the climbing is generally not too bad. The route is advisory so there's an option to make the last 90km quite a bit flatter for only a few kms more if you want to.
