We stuck exactly to the script as promised on the
blog except I blotted my copy book by almost arriving late (don’t ask) and then
having hardly started I fell off my bike very slowly (new shoes, new cleats, old
pedals, old bike). The barbed wire fortunately came off worst!
After leaving Dorking we took the off-road cycle
route to White Down Lane and then up to Abinger Common, around Leith Hill
before swooping down Tanhurst Lane to Forest Green and the long route to the
Bull's Head at Ewhurst via Walliswood and Ellen’s Green - some 18 miles.
Ian joined the 8 of us for lunch having come by the
direct route. Food was served promptly. Such rain as there was came and went
while we were eating.
After lunch we made our way to Cranleigh, joined
the Down’s Link to Shalford and Guildford and then it was tea for 4 of us at
West Horsley GC – another 18 miles.
Many thanks to Terry for being TEC and providing
the photos, to the corner markers and to those who dusted me down!
