Thirteen of us took the road to Effingham Junction crossroads and turned left into Effingham Common Road to Effingham. At the first crossroad we rode a short left and then right up Church Street and Browns Lane to the St. Lawrence Centre where we went through the car park to a track leading to the charming and very old All Saints Church, Effingham. We stopped to check out this small Saxon church updated in Norman times and then went on to Bookham where we took the Dorking Road towards Polesden Lacey but turned off to take Bagden Hill / Chapel Lane to a garden lunch at the Stepping Stones.
On the way back to Leatherhead, Helen Tovey was keen to get back home and cycled ahead of us but unfortunately came a cropper soon after she joined the cycle path after Givons Grove roundabout. When we caught up with her she was sitting on the pathway with blood coming from a small head wound. Fortunately Liz Scrivens had her first aid kit with her and was able to patch Helen up. We all rode on to Ashtead for tea at the old Bike Beans. I rode home very slowly on my own as my muscles were aching too much and I was concerned that this was a resurgence of PMR - not a pleasant condition.
