Description by the author

Questo è il primo giorno del percorso in bicicletta lungo il Muro di Adriano e il percorso Coast to Coast di Wainwright. Il percorso a basso budget va da campeggio a campeggio. La parte lungo il Muro di Adriano segue la National Cycle Route 72 fino a Carlisle. Dopo Carlisle, il percorso si piega in direzione di St. Bees, il punto di partenza della Coast to Coast di Wainwright dal Mare d'Irlanda al Mare del Nord. Questo percorso Coast to Coast è originariamente un sentiero per escursioni. Ho cercato di includere piste ciclabili e strade tranquille che sono il più vicino possibile al percorso pedonale.

 

Da Newcastle al campeggio di Melkridge. From Newcastle to the campsite in Melkridge.

Visita il forte romano di Housesteads / Visit the Roman Fort of Housesteds.

La piccola deviazione è indicata con waypoints. / Little detour is indicated with waypoints

Dalla ferry a Newcastle troverai rapidamente i primi cartelli della NCR 72. Devi rimanere attento perché il percorso cambia spesso direzione. Presto passerai sotto l'arco che indica l'inizio del percorso del Muro di Adriano. I primi 15 km attraversano Newcastle e seguono il fiume Tyne, anche attraverso il centro con i suoi famosi ponti. Dopo Newcastle continuerai a seguire il fiume per un bel po', il che ti permetterà di pedalare su terreno quasi pianeggiante. Non appena lasci il fiume, appariranno le prime delle molte colline che ti aspettano. Fai attenzione ai cartelli che indicano il Muro di Adriano altrimenti rischi di perdere i luoghi interessanti. A 10 km dal campeggio di Melkridge troverai le rovine del forte romano di Housesteads e il museo di Vindolanda. I siti chiudono alle 17:00. Il campeggio di Melkridge è semplice. C'è una "bunk barn" ("fienile per dormire") se preferisci non montare la tenda. La bicicletta può essere riposta in un altro capannone.

 

From the Ferry in Newcastle you will find the first shields of the NCR 72. Stay allert because the path changes often the directions. Soon you will cycle under the arch that indicates the start of the Hadrian's wall route. The first 10 miles you will cross Newcastle. The route goes along the river Tyne, trough the centre of the town with its famous bridges. After Newcastle you will follow Tyne for quite some time offering you a flat ride. As soon as you leave the Tyne the first of the many hillsides to go will appear. Beware of the shields that point to the Hadrian's wall so that you don't miss the interesting sites. About 6 miles before the campsite of Melkridge you'll find the ruins of Housesteads Roman fort and the Vindolanda museum. Both sites are open till 5.00 pm. The Mekridge campsite is simple. There is a bunk barn in case you will leave the tent in the bag.
