Group B Ride on the 15th March from Egham

 

You are all invited on a ride from Egham to Taplow and back to Ashford. It is, I believe, the first time the B’s have cycled from Egham and we will meet at the day centre, which can be found by cycling down Manor Farm Lane and taking the 1st left turning; the day centre is straight in front of you.

We will be following one of Tony Hopkin’s routes that will, I believe, be new to most of you. Our route out will be across the meads to Old Windsor, Datchet, Dorney, Bray to Taplow. Lunch is at the Lake House Café. After lunch we follow the Jubilee River for 4 and a bit miles, then Eton, Windsor, Datchet, Horton, Stanwell and Ashford, where we stop for tea.

The route out is 16 miles and back is 15 miles. I have tried to accommodate everyone’s requirements regarding trains with a good train service from London to Egham and back from Ashford. The rides are made-up paths or roads. The paths are gravel for 1.2 miles going and 4 miles back with the occasional puddle.
