B group 14.10.09.

After the AGM at Hersham, PC-less Liz led a sizeable bunch to The Cricketers at Stoke d'Abernon. I left Hersham later and joined everyone for lunch (how many more times this year will we be able to eat outside ?). After a pleasant break some went home but the majority headed south to Effingham Junction and East Horsley. After joining the A246 I was politely told by a frustrated motorist that we were breaking the law riding in convoy. Equally politely I told him we were not. Soon we turned into Chalk Lane, then Honeysuckle Bottom, passing Bob Symes' 10 1/4" gauge (GWR) model railway - but no trains running today. Soon we arrived at the saw mills, but Liz opted to about-turn rather than accept the challenge of an off-road steep uphill track. Not wishing to deprive us of a climb, she then chose to go UP Crocknorth Road to Ranmore, eventually passing Ranmore church and DOWN Ranmore Common Road to Westhumble. We used the cycle track to Leatherhead, past the recently ram-raided Cycleworks to Annie's where there was a goodly selection of muffins (flavours various), after which we went our separate ways.
