A Group July 23rd

Ten set off from Dorking on a sunny if overcast morning (Pete M. Graham, Irene, Bob, Neal, Julian, Vic, Jeff and John B, led by Pete B). A quick leg stretch up to Ranmore Common and then on to Netley Heath and an exhilarating drop down Coombe Bottom and through Albury and Chilworth. The cut across the railway to Shalford was made interesting by a BT van on repair duty blocking the road and that necessitated a clamber through the hedge before reaching Guildford for lunch. Then a few miles along the Wey Navigation Towpath to Jacobs Well and along the A3 before a diversion through Send Marsh and Pyrford to stop at Ockham Bites. A dash for home enabled some of us to catch Sastre's attack on L'Alpe d'Huez giving him the yellow jersey, at least for now.
