The Kirkpatrick C2C is the new 250-mile long-distance cycling route from Stranraer to Eyemouth. The route is now fully signposted from coast to coast, and installations mark the start and end points of the route. In Eyemouth this is the Squiggly Bike sculpture and banners on the harbourside, in Stranraer it is an interactive sculpture of the first pedal bicycle which was invented in the region.

On Strava, cyclists have hailed the warm welcomes, share photos, and our over 300 club members are always looking for additional recommendations for cake and coffee stops – it would be lovely to get the local Eyemouth perspective for this: https://www.strava.com/clubs/1147120

Ride the Kirkpatrick C2C, South of Scotland's Coast to Coast: Explore the home of the bike - 250 miles of road biking adventure.
