Sunday's ride is: Addlestone-Pirbright-Ripley around 25 miles. Both pubs in Pirbright have gastro aspirations. The Yurt Cafe is a separate part of the Cricketers serving hot drinks and snacks at gastro prices. There's no shops so you could BYO and feed the ducks.
Well the recce didn't go well! Close to Fox Corner the left crank came loose. The bike limped three miles to Pirbright Station stopping regularly to have its pinch bolts tightened. Back home I found and fitted a replacement crank bolt so in theory it's back in service.
A test run and Saturday's Covid jab might mean no time for a second recce. Mud is definitely ruled out. I can make no promises about the Worplesdon Station underpass....
