Bag transfer for Coast to Coast

[dggeb]

Hi,
Just starting with first post on this forum.
I am planning to do the C2C - Whitehaven to Sunderland in September. Have looked at bag transfers but seem quite expensive
Does anyone have suggestions about how to get best value for money?
thanks

Hello and
No helpful suggestions I'm afraid. The only thing that makes bag transfer cheap is numbers - moving lots and lots of bags.
Otherwise you're essentially looking at a taxi fare from the start of your route to the end.
Personally I'd just pack light, and possibly bin socks / undies at the end of each day!

Welcome - not sure why you'd need bag transfers? I've ridden this route twice on a 2 day and last year on a 2 1/2 day ride with my 13yo son. We packed simply and light and didn't need much kit.
