Football's coming home, to Robin Hoods Bay!

25 years ago today England beat Scotland 2-0 at Wembley at Euro 96, with Gazza doing his famous 'dentist chair' celebration. At the same time me and five mates rolled into Robin Hoods Bay at the end of a seven day Coast to Coast trip,  starting in St Bees and following the Wainwright route for much of the way. We were blessed with good weather for most of the journey, with just one afternoon and early evening of wind and heavy rain, and stayed in some fabulous places. Most of us were working for Barclays at the time and raised money for charity using the Bank's matching scheme.

I have some really good memories from that week, and 23 years later did a Devon Coast to Coast for charity. Might have to look at the Scotland MTB Coast to Coast at some point in the future 😎😎
