A lucky 13 B's set off from Shepperton on a lovely, warmer than expected, September day. Through Chertsey and over St Anns Hill to Lyne, before taking the long drag up to Longcross. Branching off over Staple Hill to take in the magnificent autumnal view across Chobham Common, then picking up the lanes through Sparrow Hill and the short roughstuff alongside Mill Bourne to Pennypot. Unfortunately the leader was unable to persuade anyone to brave the ford in Lovelands Lane, so it was on past Castle Grove and into Goldsworth Park before taking the Basingstoke Canal for the last stretch into Woking. After lunch (Wetherspoons) it was back on the canal to Scotland Bridge and through Row Town and the backroads of Addlestone, crossing Walton Bridge to Lower Sunbury, where the remaining 6 enjoyed tea in the Walled Garden with the Easyriders who were there before us. About 30 miles between elevenses and tea, with thanks to Don for acting as backmarker.
