A Group 7 July

Cobham - Godalming - West Horsley

Very Happy Birthday, Ray. An example to us all!
When you think of Godalming, what somes to mind - Wetherspoons or Cotterell House, 69 Meadrow? Ed had decided to lead us, like a herd of old tuskers, on a nostalgia tour to Godalming. Our route followed a well-worn furrow via the Hautboy to E.Clandon, up and down to Shere Road, when it became a breathless chase to keep up with Ed along the A248 to Bramley. We then followed some lovely, shaded and upwardly mobile lanes that led us into Godalming. The Jack Phillipps needs no introduction.

Lunch at the Jack Phillips may have been a bit monochrome.

After lunch, our ride to tea at W. Horsley was interrupted only by Guildford, where some shoppers imagined that we were testing out the cobblestones for the evening's cycle race. For most it was a gentle jaunt along the A246, though Vic and John decided to stretch their legs a bit and I was able to resist Will's invitation to catch them up before the Garden Centre. After a leisurely tea, the group disappeared like butterflies in the late-afternoon summer breeze.
