A review of the Coast to Coast (or C2C) cycle across the whole of England whilst making my way home. Day 5: Sunderland-Birmingham – saying goodbye to the rest of Team Low Rider and making my way from Sunderland to Durham and on to Birmingham.
We had a chilled morning in Sunderland and then said our goodbyes before I cycled to Durham (it made most sense for me to get my train from here but I wasn’t super pleased about it after the previous four days!). The route had some nice views and then some heart in mouth moments as Google Maps tool me on a VERY fast dual carriageway. I made the train and the weather was glorious upon arriving back in Birmingham – the best of the whole trip!
// 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!

Think I'd be crying at the idea of another hour and a half to get to a different train station haha. At least it was lashing it down on that last part to freedom eh 😂 I was chatting to some fella a few weeks ago who do this in a day, non-stop cycling for like 23 hours I think he said and then the loon didn't even set up shop and relax in a hotel for the night; he was straight back on the train. Some people cray cray haha. Think I'd for sure be more inclined to do the 3-4 days. I seen your comment pop up about that starling bank but it's disappeared for some reason so let know some more if you can, sounds like something I need to sort out tbh. Cheers, Wayne
