Day Eight, the punultimate day of our 2024 tour.
West Moss-side to Longtown, via Gretna.
Pretty flat along the estuary and reaching the border into England!
This is the fourth leg in our John O’Groats to Lands End Adventure (JOGLE4) which takes us from Troon to Carlisle, around 145 miles over 9 days.
We are happy to hear advice and suggestions from seasoned video makers, and happy to answer questions about our cycle touring.
