Leatherhead to West Clandon

To supplement Tony's photographic record, to acknowledge GFH's indisposition and to satisfy what we know to be his need for completeness, here are just a few words to thank Dave for his inn-to-inn leadership on Sunday from the Edmund Tylney at Leatherhead to the Bull's Head at West Clandon. Some 15 riders graced the E.T. with guest appearances from Maureen and Cliff. With our lunch at no great distance, we had time for a coffee-refill and chat before setting off for W Clandon via Fetcham and the Horsleys. With no chevrons to trouble us and no greater challenge than a concrete farm track, we reached the Bull's Head without too much heavy breathing. The pub was busy and our number perhaps exceeded their expectations, but we were all squeezed in and served, though one toasted sandwich was declared MIA. Tony's photographic evidence exposes one lady who received her just desserts.

The postprandial plan was to head for Addlestone. As I chose an early homeward option, I'm sure that all enjoyed their tea-time brew, before high-tailing it for home.
