In view of the cold conditions I suggested two alternative rides both to Weatherspoons either Guildford or Leatherhead. General opinion was for Leatherhead the shorter ride approximately 8 miles. The route taken was mainly off road regardless of snow and ice having checked the route the reverse way from Fetcham. Ten of us departed a little later than usual including Vic, Pete B, PeteM, Rob, Grant, Ian (who we hadn't seen for some time) Neil, Mike M, comparitively new member John from Durham and Tony.
We took the Cobham Park road through Downside to Bookham common, at the Bookham/Fetcham fork, seeing that the Bookham path looked dodgy with packed ice decided Fetcham was safer. We continued via Woodside the Glade, Kennel Lane, Lower road into Cobham road and the Mill pond path and thereon to Weatherspoons. Glad to say no mishaps.
There was discussion about 3's, Tony flippantly though kindly suggested his place in Sutton but most of us were contented to go straight home.
