Sunday 22nd February 2009

There were around 40 cyclists at West Horsley Squires including 21 from the C & M,the remainder being Hounslow Wheelers.Some may have noticed a modest reduction in prices - PoT is reasonable £1.22 whilst a cooked breakfast is £2.99.
Under cloudy skies,Ed led 15 in a NW direction along Ripley Lane over the A3 and past Newark Priory.Established in the 12th century,but in ruins since the 1730's when the owner,Lord Onslow decided to preserve what remained.It is now a grade one ancient monument on private land unable to be reached at close proximity.
Heavy traffic was encountered on the short distance to Weybridge's Jolly Farmer.
Initial doubts about it's food policy was cast aside and all seemed satisfied with a combination of beef baguettes and beef roasts.
Graham took over at the front on a familiar Wayfarers route to Hersham Weir and Weston Green.
The weary took tea at Long Ditton Squires.


For riders unaffected by the economic downturn,Lidl provides us with a chance to spend from Thursday.
