A good turn-out at Kingston Active Life Centre. They knew we were coming with
the good assortment of home-made cakes!
Pat & Bill Matthews came for 11's. Bill not riding at the moment, as he is taking it easy due to an accident where he slipped on rocky terrain whilst walking and cracked some ribs. Still a bit sore; but getting better. Dennis was also there. He informed me that the pub I was going to, use to be a popular cyclist pub in the 1800s; similar to The Anchor in Ripley.
Also, Doreen, Ron and Bill came for coffee.
I led a baker's dozen from the day centre to Kingston Market Place, where we turned left to go along the river to Ham then Teddington Lock. Over the blue bridge and through the High Street and into Bushy Park. We cycled over the revamped roundabout at Hampton Court. Newly turfed, and a bit smaller to enable the Olympic cyclists to get round. We then went onto the cycle path and turned left passed the train barrier towards Thames Ditton. Did a right turn onto the Portsmouth Road and our lunch destination was The Angel Pub. We sat at the back in a terraced area. The sun was warm when it was out; and it was very pleasant sitting there. We had an assortment of lunches and all agreed that the food there was very nice. A first visit for some and highly recommended.
