After two weeks of spring (daffodils and lambs) in Salop, the weather finally caught up and we were treated to a sunny and warm day. Only Ed, Keith and Simon were up for the early start and we took an obvious line to Wisley RHS via Stokesheath Road, Downside and the airfield (where the runway barriers are gone - anyone know why?). This route surprised Simon who thought Henfold(!) was our destination, and Keith who'd never sampled the Summerhays path. We were 11 for 11s but Terry's appearance was fleeting due to a gnashed tyre.
Seven headed past the Anchor to Ripley and then through Send to join the A3 cyclepath from Potters Lane. Our passage through Guildford was delayed briefly by a profane local before One Tree Hill provided the only climb of the day on route to lunch at the Grantley Arms in Wonersh.
There was no enthusiasm for Coombe Bottom or tea. So apart from Simon, we rode through East Shalford and up Guildford High Street where John and Keith departed for the Clandons. For the rump, the A3 provided a route to a hastily arranged tea at Ockham Bites.
