The Easy
Riders met at The St. George’s Centre Ashtead for elevenses. After the cold weather of previous weeks
today was quite Spring like. A dozen or
so of us headed for Ashtead Common, via the level crossing at Ashtead
station. The track across the common was
firm and dry although on either side the woods looked very boggy. We made our way at a leisurely pace across
the common to Woodlands Road and then another stretch of woodland to reach
Churchside and run down to The Cricketers inn at Stamford Green. The distance
across the Common was only about three miles so we were at The Cricketers by 12.00
for an early lunch. After a pleasant lunch Ron kindly agreed to lead all of us
to Ewell Court for tea - this was new territory for me so I was happy to let
someone else take over. After a pleasant
tea break in the tearooms next to the library we made our separate ways home,
Lynda pointing me in the direction for Epsom and Ashtead Common. It was good to cycle in sunshine again - not
a ride of marathon length but a nice day out.
