Nineteen of us set of from Cobham. I'll admit that it was a relief that the numbers were not higher given the B group tendency to exceed 20. We made steady progress south over Bookham Common and up Dorking Road to Chapel Lane followed by a swift descent to Westhumble. After taking the Coach Road to Brockham we stopped on the green for Pete Beyer to take a group photo. There was some surprise here that we were turning left over the river and not going direct to Dawes Green but as I had hoped there was time for a loop through Betchworth to approach the pub from Flanchford Bridge. Ordering food and drink took a while but it was served promptly and we were away soon after 2. We returned more directly to Pixham and then up Lodgebottom Lane to Headley and on to Epsom. By this time we were shedding those who wished to go home rather than to tea and just five of us stopped at the Old Moat Garden Centre. About 30 miles from Cobham to tea. Thanks to Tim for the route map and back marking, and to those who corner marked - particularly Dave Ferrett and Steph.
