B Group May 7th

Norman Goody B Groups Puncture Victim

The B group comprising, amongst others,Norman Angie Steff Judy Les J. Les Paul a new member Harold Nev Mick led by Cliff left Cobham on what was meant to be a "gentlemanly" ride to Leigh, pronounced Lie by the cognizenti ! It was intended to be a peaceful enjoyable ride after last weeks wet wet ride.Unfortunately the leader, who is easily led got carried away by riders close around him upping the pace! This resulted in complaints, gentle ones, from some and the group getting to Leigh at an average of just under 12 mph. Angie of course thought this was slow! We lost Harold at some point when he stopped to take a call on his mobile, sorry Harold! At Leigh Nev and Mick went off to "sandwich" and we didn't see them again. Lunch at the Plough was O.K. at least I didn't hear any complaints. Just as we were leaving Norman found he had a puncture so the rest of us sat in the sun while he repaired it. Tea was taken at Denbies, except that is for Les J. who set off home, the rest of us returning to Worcester Park and various places between via Ashtead Common.
