The A
Group ride on 24 June will be from Walton via Ripley (toilets!!) to Blackheath
Cricket Ground (lunch) and return via Merrow ( toilet open at the Park &
Ride) and Ockham to the Medicine Garden at Cobham ( café and toilets). There
will be a section off-road – see below.
We will
be riding in groups of maximum 6 to comply with government regulations.
Pre-booking your place is essential, and places will be allocated on a first
come first served basis. Please email me at briangreenwood@yahoo.co.uk to
reserve your place, and by Monday 15 June at the latest.
There are
at least two sub-leaders to share the
leading, and so it should be possible to accommodate up to 18 riders.
Riders should come with a packed lunch and
hand-sanitizer and should also follow Wayfarer instructions for safe and legal
riding in groups, which can be found here
Our
proposed route can be seen and downloaded here
We will
meet near the café by Walton Bridge (on Walton Lane at Cowey Sale). The toilets
are open. Details for A and B groups will be provided on Monday. Grid reference
TQ093664.
Lunch
will be at Blackheath Cricket ground where there is plenty of space and seats.
Adequate country-style facilities but beware of surrounding footpaths to the
east!!
The
weather is forecast to be warm and sunny.
Offroad:
from Farley Heath to Green Lane. About 200m of hard track to cottages and then
500m of bridlepath. Fairly level, mostly earth path. On this morning’s recce we
had to walk round one wet stretch of about 20m but rode the rest without
getting either the bikes or ourselves muddy. Not bad after all the recent rain. It is forecast to be mostly dry
until Wednesday so should improve. I’ll check again on Monday.
I am
looking forward to receiving your booking at briangreenwood@yahoo.co.uk
