All day ride Saturday 14 March

There will be an all day ride to visit the spring flowers at Fulham Palace Gardens on Saturday 14 March. The palace and gardens have been restored over recent years, there is a café where we can stop for lunch, and we hear that their volunteers planted 25,000 bulbs last autumn, so unless the squirrels have stolen them all the gardens should be well worth a visit!
I'm planning a route through Kingston and Richmond Park, threading our way along the north side of the river from Barnes bridge via cycle paths.  Back after lunch through Putney, Putney Heath and  tea, either at Wimbledon Windmill  or Roehampton Gate.  Relatively easy going for our first Saturday all day ride of the season.
Meet up at Nonsuch Mansion House 9.45 for 10 am start; Kingston bridge 10.30.  Please arrive early if you need a morning coffee, as there will not be a coffee break en route (although I will try to find a suitable pitstop for short comfort break for those who need it).
