might just be getting the hang of it. The 250-mile Border Loop was my aim and I managed to complete the circuit, made it to my planned destination each night and even managed to odd detour while I was at it.<\/p>\n<p>The really surprising thing, though, was that I didn&#8217;t suffer a single mechanical issue &#8211; not even a puncture. That was definitely a first for me.<\/p>\n<p>My friend Peter joined me for the first couple of days and we enjoyed a great ride despite the torrential rain we encountered on day one when we met at Kelso. I&#8217;d followed the official route from Berwick-upon-Tweed, meandering along the country lanes knowing that Peter&#8217;s train was arriving later than mine. He would take the direct route to Kelso and see me there.<\/p>\n<p>Soaked to the skin, we decided a night at the youth hostel at Kirk Yetholm was a better option than camping. Things brightened up the next day, thankfully, and &#8211; with the exception of a mini storm that afternoon &#8211; my remaining five days in the saddle were to stay dry. Not only that, I was applying the sun cream regularly in the unexpected summer heatwave.<\/p>\n<p>With camping gear and all the extras, I was carrying around 16-17kg across my four pannier bags &#8211; a substantial amount but then I&#8217;ve never been a light packer! For a start, I enjoy the luxury of having my two-man tent with a serious porch. I cut down my pans and stove to the bare minimum and even reduced the spare clothing, though in hindsight I could have been even stricter on that part.<\/p>\n<p>All this was in preparation for next year&#8217;s Land&#8217;s End to John O&#8217;Groats cycle which is in the planning stages. I&#8217;m confident after this experience that I could manage the ride with that sort of weight but there are areas I can cut down and make it easier for myself &#8211; and the luxury tent may have to be the first thing to go, sadly!<\/p>\n<p>Our second day on the Border Loop took us along wonderful country roads from Yetholm to Hawick then on to the Ettrick valley, where we camped at a nice site at Hopehouse. A hilly day followed as we rode past the highest point of the route then down a seriously steep road to reach the A701 at Tweedsmuir.<\/p>\n<p>This is where Peter left to return home and I headed north then east to Peebles and Innerleithen. I had a shorter day planned after that, following a nice gentle climb (if it wasn&#8217;t for the nasty headwind) north before returning south-east to Galasheils and Melrose. I detoured to a campsite near Ancrum so I could visit my in-laws, who live outside Jedburgh, for the evening. That added a few miles to the trip but was worth it for the socialising &#8211; and the home-cooked meal!<\/p>\n<p>One long day remained before a short hop to Berwick on my final day. My plan for day five was to go from Melrose (now Ancrum) to Eyemouth on the east coast. It started well as I got an early start and made excellent time to Duns for lunch, where I ate outside a lovely cafe in the town&#8217;s bustling little square. The afternoon would be hilly and hot but I felt good and made steady progress, arriving 63 miles later in Eyemouth before 4pm &#8211; only to discover the caravan park there doesn&#8217;t take tents.<\/p>\n<p>The alternative was a few miles back up the road so, after an ice cream and a breather, I headed along the main road to Coldingham and set up camp. A beer and a pub meal were well-earned that day.<\/p>\n<p>I now had 20 miles or so to reach Berwick before my afternoon train, so took the final day very slowly, enjoying a leisurely lunch at Paxton House, the finishing point of the Loop before the 3-mile link to Berwick.<\/p>\n<p><em>* I will be writing a feature on the Border Loop for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scottishcyclingmag.co.uk\/\" title=\"Scottish Cycling magazine\" target=\"_blank\">Scottish Cycling<\/a> magazine in the near future.<\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"geo-post-1861\" class=\"geo geo-post\" style=\"display: none\"><span class=\"latitude\">55.770242<\/span><span class=\"longitude\">-2.005395<\/span><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s a fine art to cycle touring and I think I might just be getting the hang of it.
