Invitation to A group ride 1st May

 We will be meeting at Cobham RBL and riding north to Old Windsor 25 miles and 850 ft of ascent. I have planned a route passing through Windsor Great Park on a permitted cycle path called the 'Rhododenron Ride'. 

Lunch will be at 'The Bells of Ouseley', a Harvester pub.  Set Lunch Menu  Main Menu . To clarify the menu choice, you can choose unlimited salad and bread rolls from the salad bar for £6.99. If you order from the main menu you can order a 'flatbread' with chicken etc. which includes the unlimited salad bowl for £9.99. If you order from the Set Lunch menu, you can order two courses for £13.99, which again includes the unlimited salad bowl option. Please let me know your choice when you sign up for the ride and I will relay the information to the pub Monday evening.

Return ride is 17 miles and 250 ft of ascent through Staines and Bushy Park. I have included a detour to the Air Forces memorial in the route if you would like to spend 5 minutes walking round and looking at the view if it is a sunny day. Both off road sections are on hard surfaces. The forecast looks likely to be up to 20 degrees and little chance of rain. There are at least three coffee venues in the Hampton Court bridge area where we finish the ride.

If you would like to join the first warm Wednesday ride please email me Steve D by Monday 6 pm with your lunch order.  Brian has kindly offered to lead a group from gpx and this is also possible for anyone else who would like to offer to lead a group.
