A group ride 23 Oct 2019

Starting at Teddington (Elleray Hall) this will be a flat ride heading north-west through Shepperton, Staines, Egham, Old Windsor, Eton, and Dorney. 24 miles to lunch at the famous Pineapple Pub with its "Amazing Sandwich Menu". There are a few off-road sections, including a short but very steep climb up Cooper's Hill Lane just after Egham (this is an official cycle route and is just about rideable on a road bike but you may prefer to get off and walk it, especially the gnarly top section). After lunch we will do another 22 miles returning via Fifield, Cranbourne, Woodside, Cheapside, Virginia Water to tea at the Mocha café in Shepperton (or Squires in Upper Halliford if the group prefer). Total 46 miles and total ascent just 1,100ft (very flat). If anyone would like the GPX file just send an email to michaelreynell@gmail.com.

Cooper Hill, oh dear, hardly rideable on a mountain bike!
