    Looks like a beautiful place to ride, the ride over the Scottish border looks very similar to the southern highlands in New South Wales Australia.

    Absolutely loved this mini-series. I've done a few of the roads around Newcastle, Keilder area, but not joined up, looks awesome. Also, my favourite MWay stop off at Tebay, by far best services in UK.
    Next journey, I could say do a loop of Yorkshire for Yorkshire day on 1 August, but, a bit soon. We could do it next year! (Love to meet Lillie).
    How about a tour of East Anglia, (bit flat), but It's a place I've never been but looks OK in Freddies Dobbs Vids. Thank You Girls, Ride and stay safe.

    9:37....to your left, is one of the best motorcycle roads in the UK....the A6088 onto the B6357 😊
    Oh. But then later, lo and behold, suddenly you're well along on the B6357 enjoying the descent to Saughtree Station valley lol. Some judicious editing, no less. You either double backed or more likely joined it at Cleuch Head coming down from south of Jedburgh or Hawick through Bonchester Bridge. The beauty of these roads is they criss cross and interconnect, with multiple ingress and exits. 🙂
    Didn't think that was on the Northumberland 250, but glad you experienced it, all the same.
