C Group Oct 17th

Albert wasn't out today, (hospital appt.), so here is 'C' rides news by Lynda.

Claygate Day Centre is looking very nice after its refurbishment. John C. led the group today. It was perfect cycling weather. Quite a few turned out. There was Fuzz, Roger, Bill, Beryl, Lynda, Ken P, Dennis, Ron, Sonia & Liz, Pat & Bill for 11's. Harold went to 11's by car, and also came to the lunch stop. After his holiday, he will be joining us, fully recovered from his broken rib.
We left Claygate and went towards Cobham, turning left before Claremont Pk., and taking the housing estate private road. We then turned left at Cobham Football club and went through Effingham, passing The Tilt towards Bookham Common and had lunch at The Anchor in Bookham. We were told there was no chef and the fryer wasn't working so had quite a wait for sandwiches and bagettes; made up by the bar staff! Hopefully, our next visit will find a new chef and a varied menu. We came back through Leatherhead, Ashtead and had afternoon tea and cakes in the Clock Tower cafe in Epsom. A very enjoyable ride.
