Ride 19/07/2026 July Randonee Berwick upon Tweed

Just little ole me on this months Randonee but what a day to do it on 😁 I was riding down to Berwick upon Tweed in England and the weather was perfect for it 😘 I started the ride in Galashiels and basically took a easterly ride to Berwick upon Tweed on some of the quietest roads I’ve ever been on. Ok I was out in the middle of nowhere but it was glorious weather for it and it was such a nice ride. I couldn’t have picked a better route if I had tried, there were no major climbs in it, it was undulating which is why I clocked up 4800 feet of climbing but I hardly felt it. The only minor annoyance was the cafe stop I had planned to stop at in Berwick upon Tweed was shut that day 😕 not because it doesn’t open on a Sunday but because there was a notice on the door saying it was closed last Sunday and today, but no reason for it. Anyway not a big deal I just rode a little bit up the road and stopped at the Northern Edge Coffee cafe instead 😀 where I had a coronation chicken roll, coffee and Victoria Sponge cake 🥰 no spaces to sit outside so I took a seat in the cafe instead, which is fine it kept me out of the heat as it was pushing 28 degrees Celsius at this point 🥵 With the route being a straight shot there and back, I just followed my route back after the cafe stop without any other stops, I had plenty of fuel with me thus clocking up 90 miles at an avg speed of 16 mph and what a great ride it was 👌🚴🌞🌞
