Inverbervie's Glorious Witch


You will see a witch on the North Sea Cycle Route. Please meet Mrs Cutty Sarg, famous for being the patron of a 19th century mergant ship. Inverberie is located half way in between Montrose and Stonehaven, on the eastcoast south of Aberdeen. Cutty Sarg is not only name of witch and ship, but also of whiskey, the people of Inverberie produce somewhere around their homeplace. So why not stop by to enjoy some hard stuff to honour Mrs Witch?

Colchester's Black Knight


Wonder if you can think of a male english person, being more english than Sir Black Knight. "Nobody shall pass" is what he says, he will not accept a defeat. To stop in front of this famous person, chose the passage from the Continent via Harwich.
Starting in Harwich it may be about 40 kilometers of paddlebiking until you arrive Colchester.
Colchester is said to be the oldest english town. And for that not suprisingly guarded by the Black Knight. Want to say "hello" to Mr. Black: You better be armoured, haha. His guarding place is down mainstreet, please ask for the war memorial at England's oldest castle.
