It was a very nice day to be leading a ride with better weather than most of my Sunday rides last summer! Tony, Ed, Ray W and I left Carolyn and Bob at Fairoaks and set off towards Bagshot via Pennypot Ford and Windlesham. Then it was the long grind uphill to the Jolly Farmer roundabout before we picked up Middleton Road, a quiet, narrow road, almost a country lane, which led us virtually into the centre of Camberley. After a relaxing lunch at the Claude Duvall we found Brackendale Road, another quiet, sinuous and tree-lined, dead end road starting very near the centre of town and leading us out to the south. We crossed the M3 on an impressive triple-ramped footbridge then ducked and dived through backstreets to The Maultway and the sharp drop down Red Road which took us back to Lightwater and Windlesham. The plan was for tea at Holloway Hill but at Chobham Ed decided he would like to return via Woking so I offered to lead him there and we parted company from Tony and Ray. Thanks to everyone for a very pleasant day out in the sunshine.
