Day 9 - Newcastleton to Edinburgh

Mileage - 78.84 
Climbing - 5,083 ft
Total mileage to date - 679.73
Total climbing to date - 40,951 ft
All values approximate as I may get lost.

Should be a lovely days riding this going through the Borders up to Edinburgh, having said that, it starts with 10 miles of climbing going up about 1,000 feet!  That will wake me up and see that the porridge (and sausage) is well used.  Another decent climb after 47 miles as well, but at least the last 20 or so are either downhill or running flat into Edinburgh.

From the research plotting the route, looks like I will be riding through, up and down some beautiful valleys and passes on this leg.
