B Group - 30th March

19 brave souls left Effingham Vineries to venture into the Surrey Hills; we passed through Effingham Junction, Ockham and West Clandon en route to Shere and Peaslake to lunch at The Royal Oak, Holmbury St Mary, where Ian was waiting for us as agreed. The pub has recently been taken over by new management and the food, service and hospitality were really very good. After lunch some of the group preferred not to climb up Tanhurst Lane, where it was good to see the ‘A group’ coming down, and on up to Coldharbour.  At Dorking the two groups arrived at basically the same time and so onto tea at Denbies where tea and cake was most welcome after the exertion of the climbs. Peter turned up to tea after repairing a puncture he discovered at the pub. It was about 26 miles from elevenses to tea.

Thanks to Jennie for back marking, Tony and Alan for marking corners and Tim for all his assistance.
