Description by the author

Forty-five miles or so for an afternoon departure home form Berwick-on-Tweed. Great ride through abbey St. Bathan's and delightful Eyemouth, before passing close to Paxton house, crossing the Tweed twice, to reach Berwick-on-Tweed. Why not spend an afternoon exploring the town and the beach, and head home the next morning?
