Easy Riders March 11th


A summary of Wednesday's ride.

Ron led Lynda, Carole, Helga, Sonia, Susie, Beryl, Allan, Fuzz, Bill H., Roger, Mick on a history tour en route to The Stepping Stones. We stopped at several places of interest on the way; Ron, our tour guide, stopped at Leatherhead pond, where we read a plaque saying Canadian engineers had started making a road near the roundabout in 1941. We cycled on to Juniper Hill, where he showed us a Roman Road . Then onwards to Box Hill School, where Ron's teacher witnessed a tree falling into a hole! (Ask Ron for the story). We had quite a wait for our lunch as there were a few parties there. The sun was shining and we made our way back to Leatherhead Day Centre for afternoon tea. Carole, Helga, Beryl and myself came back to Cheam, via Nonsuch Park; where we saw Lionel Blair walking his dog. Beryl got the train to Victoria and three of us went to Cannons or Nuffield as they are now called for swim and jaquassi.

Lynda.
