21. August, sun, waves, sand by the sea. But why so hilly?
Withby – Redcar
57.5 km and approx. 600hm
The day begins unsightly. That's where the many altitude meters come together, when we have to climb the cliffs up and down several times. Normally, these are already inclines for pushing. And it doesn't get any easier with your luggage… Well, we're coming anyway. And today it doesn't go far, just to a campsite in the middle of the way to the ferry. Maybe we can enjoy the sun and the sea again.
During the day we have nice conversations with two women. The first we meet would be a break. She asks if we got lost and even gives us water. Both women ask what we are actually doing. At first our journey is a little off, but they quickly find pleasure in it and are interested in our stories.
The evening is beautiful. After 10 days of North Sea coast bike path in England we are finally in the water. Hannah a little deeper than me because she has longer legs. It is too cold for us to jump into it, especially since the warm midday sun hasn't been shining for a long time. Our dinner is back in the warm tent.
