An Alternative B Ride (Or, the NorWesters Return) 23/7/20

Dorking being a tad to far after only a short return to cycling for some, an alternative ride was devised for the Norwesterners of the Wayfarers, or SouWesters ( A real mouthful) So 11's was taken at Cobham Bakery, just round the corner from the RBL And them Pam led a very interesting route to Claygate for lunch, we never got really lost but came close, I did spot a wild boar at one point. We also did our good deed for the day by searching for and finding a lost dog. We encountered some sandy tracks that were not cyclable and the walking descent through the Pinewood was interesting.



Claygate was reached and lunch was taken in the local rec, which was full of junior and very junior youngsters being coached at football.

We all had our own lunch. Onto tea at Thames Ditton and take away coffee from Nice Buns cafe (honestly it's called Nice Buns) which we enjoyed in St Nicholas Church memorial garden.

A very pleasant day out and we didn't lose anyone, well only briefly
Thank you Ed, Pam, Liz and Gill for your company and especially to Pam for such an interesting route.
Tony..
