A group of 15 left Claygate on a cold foggy morning headed for Pyrford Lock with Cliff leading,riders included Gill Liz Judy Carol Christine Anita plus sister Terry Norman Harold visiting from C group two Davids and Robin, sorry for any errors and omissions but having left my route sheet on the kitchen table I was a bit preoccupied! Our route was via Oxshot to Stoke D Abernon over to Station Road to Tilt Meadow where we picked up River Lane to Downside Common then on towards Martyrs Green and left to Effingham Jcn. A right at Drift Rd.At the end we joined East Lane and Long Reach to Ockham and on to Ripley. A right in the centre of town (village?) took us to Warren Lane Lock Lane and the Anchor at the lock, a bit of a circuitous route
Our proposed lunch here was frustrated by it being packed with families enjoying half term lunch so it was about turn and back to the Seven Stars nearer Ripley. Here we were received by a welcome from the Landlord and his staff who provided excellent dishes at reasonable prices although due to our problems including a slow puncture for one of the Davids, we finished lunch at three o'clock.
Our return was via the Wisley bridge and across the airstrip to Cobham where a few of us had tea before dispersing.I clocked 49 miles and got home at 18.20 hrs Cliff W.
