Kingston-Weybridge-Stoke D'Abernon
 

 

Slippery Walton Bridge

Having plotted today's route in better weather, some serious re-thinking was necessary before leaving Kingston. Instead of the towpath we eleven used main roads over Kingston Bridge to Hampton Court and Hampton, then enjoyed the relative peace and quiet of riverside roads to Walton Bridges. Here a half-hearted snow flurry stayed with us to lunch at The Old Crown, Weybridge. As requested, I had phoned our lunch choices ahead so we had little waiting before delicious meals appeared.

There was still the occasional snowflake in the wind when we left. Some chose to go straight home, others rode to Cobham and three of us stopped for a tea at Stoke D'Abernon Garden Centre. Hopefully everyone arrived home not too cold, wet or late.

Thanks to Tim for backmarking.
