B Group Picnic Ride - 28 August '24

Sadly I was not able to join you all on Wednesday but Christina very kindly volunteered to step in on my behalf. Many thanks also to Peter B and Julie B who sub-lead the other two groups. Sounds like it proved to be a very successful occasion and a good time had by all.

Thanks to all involved and there are numerous photos to be seen on the B group WhatsApp.

Christina writes the following :

My group consisted of Maggie and Paul James, Dawn, Terry, Grant and a new starter to CTC SW London Simon Whelan.

Thanks for Tim G for a great route over 18 miles, going through a variety (road and 2 sections of off-road) of terrains with some gentle up and occasionally not so gentle down the hills.

Thanks for Maggie for back marking. I hope we all enjoyed a lovely day riding in the sunshine and catching up with friends at the picnic.

Simon overtook me up Combe Lane in early August on my B ride from Cobham RBL. He said he was going to look into our Club and join us for a ride soon. I'm pleased he did, with a fair amount of communications and induction from Dave Ferret, our Committee Secretary. I understand Simon joined the A group ride after the picnic. I hope he enjoyed a good day riding with both B and A group riders.
