C Group Ride

Despite the dismal weather (cold, wet and windy) we had a good turnout at Hersham. Tom and Dennis were there but did not join the ride which was led by John C., Mark, Beryl, Ken, Phil and yours truly. The intended lunch destination was to be The Anchor at Bookham. We took the dual carriageway towards Esher, then right at the roundabout towards Westend having shortened our sights about lunch due to the conditions to The Cricketers. However in Fairmile Lane Beryl's bike punctured, so after spending some time getting that fixed a general consensus decided to make for The Old Plough at Stoke d,Abernon. It was pleasant inside the pub and there was no haste to get outside to the cold and wet. Tea was to be at Leatherhead so I wended my lone way back down the Stoke Road towards Cobham, home and a stiff drink! All the same, it was a good ride, in good company and most enjoyable.
