Mike Morley Chickens Out

Congratulations all you MW-Wafarers that braved the rain on Wednesday. At Walton on the Hill it poured untill lunchtime though turned sunny in afternoon. I felt shattered after the Tuesday SRCC offroad ride (lead by Bob S) to the new Weatherspoons at Horley. It opened Monday and is well worth a visit.
I had a chat to Vic White on the phone and he is in good spirit and on the mend.
Hilly 50km
I rode part of course today upto 25.2ml mark (A25 bottom White Down). The rain has washed many of the roads fairly clean and the council were sweeping the road from the 9.7ml mark (Wooton Hatch towards Friday St.) Whatch out for two massive potholes about 500meter past Wooton Hatch pub. Just before this point look for home made cake and jam stall outside house on right. Lovely Ginger Bread 50p. Also watch out for further large pothole near private school after Holmbury St. Mary. There is the usual dirt and muck on the decent from the RT after 6.8ml mark having gone down the dip and round sharp left bend towards Westcott. Generaly watch out for brambles and branches hanging out from the hedges after the wind. Also mind the sandstone rock thats in the verge on A25 ascent to Wooton Hatch. Hope to see many of you at Ryka's 10.30hrs Saturday 17 Feb. Mike M
