This week the A Group will be heading out through Windsor towards Bourne End for the climb of the day up Hedsor Hill (11% average). The reward for the climb will be lunch at the Feathers* only half a mile away. A mixture of urban and country roads. Returning via Slough and Datchet. Tea at Squires in Shepperton.
I’m aiming for a ride at a good pace and to leave Walton 11am sharp. Hope to see you there.
Point of interest on our route (to lovers of jazz), the KFC at the Cranford lights is the site of the pub that was the centre of trad jazz in the 50s (according to Billy Bragg, Ch 4 last Friday). Ken Colliers ‘Crane River Jazz band’ played here. The Crane river is close by. Bet you’re all bowled over by that useless piece of local info?

Late change of lunch venue, we will now be going to the Garabaldi in Bourne End. That means Hedsor Hill straight after lunch.
