NOTE - CHANGES TO PLANNED RIDE FOR SUNDAY 21 JULY

The ride originally planned for 21 July was swapped and took place on 30 June.    The ride on 21 July was then intended to be from Morden Hall Park to Downe with a train-assisted return.

Unfortunately, 'planned improvements' on the line from Orpington to Charing Cross have necessitated a further change!

Sunday's ride will still start from the Stableyard Cafe, Morden Hall Park but lunch will now be at the visitor centre, Lullingstone Park, an old C & M haunt!   

We'll traverse a few unfamiliar Kentish lanes, and see a delightful stretch of the Darent valley.   There might even be some lavender fields, a castle gatehouse, an impressive viaduct, a ford, and a Roman villa!

The official return will be train-assisted from Eynsford to Blackfriars, with a short, fast and quiet back-road ride from there to Waterloo for onward connections.
