Not the Whitehouse.
I was later than usual getting to
Garsons Farm and most had already arrived, the queue for drinks took
ages as it now gets very busy.
So the list of those present is as
follows. Terry, Bob, Simon, Brian, Bill, Pam, Graham, Ed, Maureen,
Paul and myself. Bob, Bill and Maureen only came to 11's.
The weather was perfect for cycling and
we headed back towards Esher through the private drive and past
Wayneflete Tower and the nice decent past the rear of Sandown park.
Then back doubles and alleys bought us to the edge of Walton and the
back to Hampton court and through Bushey park to Hampton, more back
doubles and to the spiral bridge to cross the A316, past the edge of
Feltham and on to Ashford and across Shortwood Common only to find
the foot crossing of the railway line had been permanently closed,
apparently it was the most dangerous crossing in the UK with several
deaths causing it's closure.

So more back doubles bought us into
Staines and lunch at the George pub. While we were having lunch the
rain started but by the time we were ready to leave the rain has
stopped. It was decided that most didn't want to stop for tea as
getting home in daylight was a priority.
So post lunch was also dispersal with
ones and twos going there own ways home. I got to Shepperton and
stopped to phone my wife and Ed caught me up and we rode to Hampton
together where I turned left for home. Another good day out on the
bike. Thank you all for your company and thanks to Simon for back
marking.
