Fourteen souls ventured out under a grey blanket of cloud, which kept the temperature to a balmy six degrees and no rain! It was obvious that my planned ride was going to be a success when after the Woking section of the Basingstoke Canal, 14 out of 13 wayfarers voted it the best ride of 2019! I suppose the lack of big hills and the urgent need for everyone to get some miles in, after languishing about over Christmas, contibuted to us arriving at 'The Rose and Olive Branch' at 12.30am. Look how happy Simon is!
After lunch, having gone through Staines in sales fever, we finished at 'Dish' cafe. Simon says I have a natural ability to choose routes no other leader would even consider taking, despite familiar ways being open to me.. or something like that. So that's nice.
Thanks go as usual to all the professionals for corner marking and David Jackson for back marking. Santa would be very impressed with the teamwork.
