Day Sixteen

What a journey of a day!

Starting off just outside Seaham to wake up early and allow a swift push through Sunderland. Whilst the route zig zags a bit through town, it is at least mostly out of traffic, and was able to get through and round to Roker without too much difficulty.

Heading up the coast from Roker is a nice little ride, and the sun was shining once again to make for another lovely day ahead.

Around the lip of the coast drops into the ferry station, which I was able to step right onto as the doors shut and headed over to land at North Shields.

A quick stop at CK Cycles to replace a missing screw on my cleats was necessary and very appreciated.

From there, it's due East out to the very pretty Tynemouth, and then a glorious stretch along the coast along to Blyth for a lazy lunch.

A meander down the more scenic river route provided some necessary shade from the day's heat, before looping back out and back from Cambois.

NCN 1 at this point follows a fully segregated path adjacent to the very busy A189, which whilst fast and flat doesn't make for the most entertaining ride.

Fortune smiles again though as I caught up with a group of Irish cyclists riding the Coast & Castles stretch of the route, and was able to pass the time with a nice chat and trading tales.

Plus I got to see a red kite hanging over a patch of shrubland before swooping down!

The A road is left to venture through Lynemouth, before descending down again to the coast proper.

It was like entering another country after the prior part of the day. The road opened up right along the coast, and was gloriously flat and smooth. I hardly even noticed the miles falling away.

I was quite shocked when I took a break for dinner to realise I'd made it all the way up to Druridge by that point. Had a nice little chill out getting some shade and heading down to the beach to appreciate the view and touch the sea once more.

At this point it felt like I'd come far further than I'd ever expected to do for the day, but there were still plenty of daylight hours left, so why not go for more?

The trails through Druridge Country Park are a little rocky but manayto make reasonable time across them, continuing round the coastline to Amble for another break for the kegs and some supplies.

The day was beginning to fade at this point but being this far into the day, I'd like to end close enough to the border to make Scotland at a reasonable point tomorrow, so continued to plough along the road making nice speed through Warkworth.

Alnmouth is in sight, though I feel continuing further at this juncture could leave me being caught short, and there are plenty of fields and footpaths nearby which may make good beds for the night.

What a day! I can barely believe I should be hitting Scotland tomorrow, just 17 days into this trip. Here's to tomorrow!

Radical Landscapes. Walthamstow's William Morris Gallery

Walthamstow’s William Morris Gallery, presents the Radical Landscapes exhibition which showcases artist’s relationships to the landscapes that surround them. Above: Chris Killip’s photoraphs on Lynemouth beach It aims to present how landscape art can ‘enable self-expression yet also impose social constructs’. The latter is highlighted in BBC’s John Berger Ways of Seeing (1972) that theorises…
