A wonderful turnout of SW London DA members were waitng at Ewell (at least22) on New Years Day including several new faces on this particular ride so welcome to Les, Ruth, Jeff, Charles, Eddie, Geoff, Mike.
A very sedate pace as promised with several people misunderstanding the leaders chosen route found us regrouping at Ewell Court House. Onward on good surface tracks along side the Hogsmill River to Tolworth Bridge on minor roads, underpasses & into Richmond Park via LadderStile Gate to a lateish 11s at Roehampton Café with at least 42 fellow cyclist’s from the DA.
Climbing up the steepish hill towards Kingston the request to regroup was observed by 2 out of 25! But with memories of the mornings devious way caused a halt at the next junction. Into Kingston on cycle ways back to the Hogsmill, the pushers on still thought they could second guess the leader (wrong) so the bulk continued by a good track into Ewell Court observing the new track for cycling & walking into Ewell Mill
Next year perhaps?
Videos, pictures, music & good food ended the day thanks to host Ed Sharp
