Also known as the C2C cycle route, the coast to coast bike ride, from the Irish Sea to the North Sea, is challenging, normally traveled from West to East due to the topography and prevailing wind, and is approx. 140 miles long.

The C2C route has been completed in a record 7 hours 53 minutes and 03 seconds. Such times however are reserved for the super fit.

Two days is possible whilst three days is achievable.

Four days allows the most difficult region - the Pennines, to be cycled over two days.
