Easy Riders June 2nd

C-Ride - Easy Riders - 2nd June.

The June sunshine brought a good turnout and I set off towards West Horsley with a party of about a dozen. We went out via Plough Lane, Ockham Lane and the Black Swan crossroads. After passing through Hatchford and Guileshill Lane we took to the bridleway through the Jury Farm Estate, thence to the King William IV at West Horsley.. Denis joined us here and he Ron and Mark Roy went off to eat their sandwiches on the village green or rather in the shade of the bus shelter. Two of our number had left to carry out other errands so eight of us took to the pub garden, sought the shade of large umbrellas ,(by now the sun was very hot) and enjoyed a pleasant lunch. After that we caught up with the sandwich eaters and headed for Leatherhead via The Drift, Effingham Junction, Bookham Common and Fetcham. Then it was tea and scones at the Day Centre.. At this point yours truly left them, a pleasant ride (I hope) of something over 16 miles from the time we left Cobham, quite far enough for what turned out to be a very warm day.
