Description

This is Part 3 of a long ride through the Scottish Borders. It was a sponsored Bike ride in commemoration of Doddie Weir, a scottish international rugby player (No:5), who developed Motor Neurone Disease(MND). He set up a foundation to fund research into MND and this is the annual fundraising bike ride for 2023. The whole ride is split into 4 parts, riding between the rugby clubs in the Borders, Melrose, Kelso, Jedburgh and Hawick. This section was a long uphill gradient, but not steep. However, it was against a significant headwind and the road surface was awful. You won't encounter those!
