Lunch at The Parrot, Forest Green
Not wishing to become five instant fillum stars we avoided a 'Filming Event' at Shere by riding along Goose Green from Gomshall then via Burrows Cross and Hook Lane to Hound House Road. The climb gave us opportunity to admire the wonderful, sunlit views, followed by the descent of Pitch Hill. We had to stop at the Ewhurst crossroads where a police sign implied the road was blocked by an accident - but surely a few cyclists could wiggle by ? A lorry had a flat front tyre and something (since removed) had rammed its' rear. We wiggled by and at the lunch stop five soon became eight.
The Parrot was quite busy but soon served our orders and we were able to get under way promptly, following the usual route to Dorking via Ockley, Capel (no more teas this year) and Newdigate. Hopefully all arrived home dry and in daylight.
