Second City Divide

A cycle tour of 637.5 solo kilometres pedalled (and pushed) between Glasgow and Manchester!

The second city divide is a bikepacking route which meanders its way across the hilly bits between the second city of Scotland and (debatably) the second city of England. Over 9 days in June, I took in the delights of the gravel paths through Scottish wind farms, and the sketchiness of forestry track downhills in Northumbria. From the history of Hadrian's wall to the canals which wind their way into Manchester - a little adventure, fuelled by a whole lot of chocolate milk.
