We faffed for the first 10 miles but once we were up above Rookhope ... then the Peninnes were like nothing else I've ridden. Hard, hard work and with sparce, spartan views ... but when the sun arrived it was such a great experience.
Equally challenging was the windy descens which nearly sent me flying a few times - I've never ridden in such conditions.
The final phase from Consett to Tynemouth followed disused train lines and was a nice wind down to the North Sea and completing the C2C.
