This was BIG! Coast to Coast Cycle Day 1: Whitehaven to Greystoke via Keswick | C2C 2021

Finally time to do the Coast to Coast (or C2C) cycle across the whole of England! Day 1: Whitehaven-Greystoke - around 80km of cycling from the coast into the Lake District with a lunch stop in Keswick.

We got a cooked breakfast at our hotel in Whitehaven and then headed out to dip our tyres in the sea of the west coast (as is tradition!). Luckily, I didn’t fall in/drop my bike - which seemed a very real possibility on the slippy edge. We joined the cycle path out of Whitehaven and got en route to the Lake District. One flat tyre on the way but we made it - passing by some beautiful, mystical mountain and lake scenes shrouded in cloud.

We stopped for lunch in Keswick and I went to Jan’s Lakeland Sandwich Shop before we checked out Derwentwater. Then it was the final push up to Greystoke - where Conor encountered a dagger of a stone and had to rush back to Keswich to a bike shop to get a new tyre. Finally, we made it to our B&B in Greystoke and, as we hadn’t booked a table at The Boot and Shoe in advance, we had to get some food to take away and eat back at our B&B. Of course, while we were waiting for it to be prepared we had to have a pint!

// Extra C2C info // Our route was from Whitehaven, on the west coast, to Sunderland, on the east coast. This is possibly the best C2C route, taking us through England’s Lake District National Park and the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. How long does it take to do the C2C cycle? Some people do it in a single day, whereas others take a week or more; we decided to do it over four days so we could take our time and enjoy the beauty of the areas we were cycling through!Stay tuned for more vlogs!Want to see the best places to visit in the UK?
