This is a must do trip, from Whitehaven on the west coast to Tynemouth on the east coast.
This 140mile classic journey takes you through the stunning scenery of the northern lake district, and heads into Keswick before passing through Penrith and the Eden Valley with its lush valleys and sandstone villages.
It then starts the climb up to Hartside and onto the unspoilt Northern Pennines - the roof of England. There then follows an undulating ride as the C2C meanders through old lead mining villages, such as Rookhope, and down into the Durham Dales before entering the old steel town of Consett.
From here it's an easy ride through one of Britain's old industrial heartlands to the North Sea and Sunderland,finishing at Tynemouth.
