Description
A classic north east route, into the Scottish Borders and back along traditional reivers routes, hopefully returning to England with worthwhile loot receipts, wild haggis and Scottish currency. The ride comes with an overnight control at Low Hesketh, with an optional bag drop to carry your sleeping kit and any changes of clothes.
