Today we finished our visit up north by checking up on Hadrian and his wall. The Roman Hill fort of Housesteads was amazing and commanded amazing views over the Pennines.

I looked at this photo that @delroberts took of me earlier today, and my first comment was ‘great photo, shame I look fat!’.

Very happy to finally get out on proper gravel to ride ‘Tia’ my @ribble_cycles gravel bike. Paired with my @contityres Race King tyres, and @tailfincycling Aeropack she just eats up the trails. Much fun today, despite damp and windy weather.

The tide was out just long enough for a quick visit to Lindisfarne/Holy Island, on route to our next destination.

We took a windy ride along the coast and to Alnwick today, before looping back to our campsite. The weather is on the turn!

We’ve now settled for a couple of days right up north and will be seeking out countryside and castles for the next few days.
