Next Sunday's Ride(18/08)
Early birds - read no further.
Rather than relaxing in the arms of Morpheus or Nyx, you can join Janice and I at Kingston Bridge at 0845 (prompt). We'll try to catch up with the others at Dorney Court or, failing that, at Hambleden (note spelling). I'll be taking my usual roads so there may not be time for "full english", etc.

Tea at North Holmwood
After light rain stopped and we'd helped Brian finish his chocolate cake seven of us set off from Henfold at a fast pace thanks to Ray joining me on the front. Fortunately for us he turned off just before Rusper and we followed the popular quiet route to The Red Lyon at Slinfold via Warnham and Broadbridge Heath. Service was a bit slow but we hadn't a long way to go afterwards and it was a fine day. Chris joined us here.
The return trip was a short, not too busy stretch of A29 to Buckman Corner then back to the lanes to The Haven, Bucks Green, Ellens Green, Okewood Hill and Capel. Major panic set in at Newdeigate (it was thought North Holmwood church would stop serving teas at 1600, it was now 1535) . Graham couldn't face a second consecutive cakeless Sunday so set off determined to arrive before closing time. We all arrived in good time to meet Daniel waiting for us and enjoyed assorted cakes and tea. Suitably refreshed we headed for Dorking and turning into Chalkpit Lane avoided the town centre and later made our own ways.
Distance for me home to home was 60 miles.

Pru Classic 100
For the record I spotted Janice and Mark G in Richmond Park; they were some 10 minutes apart. And Mike B was riding up among many walkers near Leith Hill Place. Janice tells me she finished in 6 hours 20 minutes (16.1 mph).
PS Why am I the last to know? - 3/4 of Tanhurst Lane has been resurfaced. Did they run out of tar? Both ends are smooth; fortunately the rough section is before it gets really steep.

Next Sunday's ride,4th August...............
The London Surrey Classic
My plans are after 11's at Denbies,head over to Forest Green (The Parrot PH) and see them complete 3 loops (2.45pm) before they tackle Leith Hill.
I expect the pub to be really busy so don't rely on it for food, just beverages.
It's a stones throw away from Capel teas too :-)
All the info is here:

Good luck to Janice riding the London Surrey 100!

Sunday 28th July 2013
I was suprised to see Wetherspoons open at 8.30 in the morning on a Sunday in Leatherhead but we had no time to linger and were away by 8.31 to arrive in good time at the 10am opening of Stooks cafe inside Newbridge Garden Centre at Broadbridge Heath.
It appeared to tick all the boxes for a new refreshment venue including a nice welcome from the owner and the poached egg for Janice (not on the menu).
At this point Ed called it a day admitting "I know my limits".The remaining five headed south to West Chiltington then Storrington.Still going south, up Chantry Lane to the top of the South Downs.
Confusion ensued trying to locate a track leading down to Clapham and in the 20 minutes or so this was taking, Terry left us to attend a social function.
Eventually, I opted for Lee Farm where a surfaced road led us to the A280 and over the A27 into Ferring.
Lunch (1.15pm) was at the Bluebird cafe right on the seafront where we met Bob.
I had a cappucino and the nicest iced bun I've ever had, light and airy not stodgy like most,but of course you can't please all of the people all of the time as these reviews seemed to indicate:
http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g2588242-d3191271-Reviews-Bluebird_Cafe-Ferring_West_Sussex_England.html
We left around 2.30pm to follow the coast road into Worthing and lots going on including a bus rally with a London Country Routemaster 407 which according to the indicator board used to go to Epsom via Cheam and not terminate at Sutton as they do now.
After climbing back over the downs at Sompting ,it was a fast decent into Steyning and a fast ride (courtesy of a following wind) to Southwater Country Park (4.20pm).
After tea and finding out the perils of fructose syrup we made our way home.
Upon arriving at Newdigate (6.05pm) my legs were telling me something I didn't want to hear.
I sent the others on and I stopped and consumed a KitKat (chunky) and Milky Way (twin) in quick succession.
Early signs of the bonk caused me to additionally stop at Givons Grove garage for a sandwich.
112 miles but with a 10% discrepancy call it a ton.
Lovely summers day with a tail wind when you most need it.

The Fat B********* new strip........

| Does Fanny need love..............?? |
PB told a cock and bull story about riding home from Poole in a day after a trip to Normandy the other weekend.
Yeah right..........lol.
Nice jerseys though :-)
Sunday 21st July 2013
Richard's ride today so I rode out to join five already at Haskin's in Copthorne.
No returnees,that made eight out all day.
We followed the B road south to Turners Hill then branched off toward Sharpthorne.
At Tyes Cross it was a right turn down what must be one of the most enjoyable roads in this part of the world...........freewheeling a good 3 miles.
There were frequent stops to look at the map because it turns out we were not heading for Sheffield Park (lunch) but a pub off the beaten track in Scaynes Hill.
We arrived around 1pm at The Sloop Inn..............but no acceptable food for the five not carrying lunch.
I lectured about the difficulty in finding suitable pubs but in addition I suggested that more folk bring their own than is currently the practice.
Apart from the lack of food the pub was fine (lime cordial 70p) and in a really pretty part of Sussex.
It seems a shame to avoid these places just because some prefer not to carry a small piece of sustinance.
PB asks who wants to eat a warm cheese roll that's been in your back pocket for several hours?
All I would say is it's probably better than a packet of gourmet crisps which is all your likely to get these days.
More and more pubs are going gastro because of the little profit on alcohol alone.
The Sloop Inn appeared to be several miles from the nearest house so relies on a weekend trade that are happy to pay £12 for a meal.
Tea was at Tulleys Farm,possibly still in Sussex.
Good value tea though...........pot for two £2.50............a pot for three £2.75.
70 odd miles.
Overcast but mild morning then sunny and very warm into the high twenties.

Sunday 14th July 2013
Back at the front on a familiar route to Lullingstone via Croydon,West Wickham,Petts Wood & St Marys Cray.
A piece of mis-information at a crucial junction (from a local) meant some (unintended) off road from the golf club at Lullingstone to descend to the River Darent and the Visitor's Centre.
I can't remember the last time we were here but it looked different,certainly a new toilet block and a more spacious cafe.
Matt returned home but Dave with his brother (Duncan) joined us for a 12 mile ride south east to Plaxtol going through Shoreham,Otford,Seal & Ivy Hatch.
Plaxtol is a small village of about 1,000 residents in Kent. The River Bourne flows through the parish, and formerly powered three watermills in Plaxtol - Winfield Mill (corn), Longmill (corn) and Roughway Paper Mill.
Although there is no longer a bakery in the village, there is a primary school, a Cromwellian church, a grocer, a butcher and a pub.
The name Plaxtol is rumoured to be derived from "Plax" meaning 'play' and "tol" meaning 'area'; there used to be a large green in the middle of the village where children would play after attending church on a Sunday.
The 1,000-acre Fairlawne Estate adjoining the village of Plaxton was owned by Sir Henry Vane the Elder, in the 17th century, and was owned by the Cazalet family in the 19th century. Major Peter Cazalet was a trainer of horses owned by the Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. Elizabeth was an occassional guest of Cazalet on the estate. The estate is currently owned by the Saudi Arabian Prince and horsebreeder Khalid ibn Abdullah.[1][2]
No sandwiches on offer at the Papermakers Arms....... "not on Sundays".........it's a familiar story nowadays.
That said, they did bring out a jug of iced water and seemed to be very friendly.
Tripadvisor rate them highly too :
http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g3451189-d2414462-Reviews-The_Papermakers_Arms-Plaxtol_Kent_England.html
Pint of orange squash £1.
2pm departure and the real hills were just a few miles away.
I chose to go south of Sevenoaks eventually to reach Ide Hill but not before a humungous hill from Sevenoaks Weald over the A21 to Sevenoaks Common (Hubbards Hill).
The church at Tatsfield was a welcome sight on this the hottest of days and such was the heat we chose to stay indoors (no shade to be found).A shame because it affords great views of the weald.
Pot of tea and a piece of lemon drizzle £2.50.
78.3 miles from Ewell (but probably nearer 75 due to suspected inaccuracy).
Very warm/hot indeed just shy of 30 degrees.
GOOD LUCK to CF in the TDF for Sunday. :-)

Sunday 7 July
Having enjoyed elevenses at a new venue (Tillings, Gomshall, formerly a pub) on a warm, sunny morning seven of us set off briefly westwards, soon turning south into Goose Green. A climb up Queen Street, Burrows Lane and Lawbrook Lane avoided Peaslake and myriad mountain bikers and rewarded us with a swift descent of Pitch Hill leading to Ewhurst. Somersbury Lane led to Ellen's Green and Cox Green and soon we turned into Lynwick Street to incorporate a short stretch of the Downs Link. Emerging at Rudgwick we briefly used the A281 before rejoining lanes to The Blue Ship at The Haven. Good lunches were enjoyed in the uncrowded garden.
Elevenses at Tillings
The return trip kept mostly to the quiet, shady lanes via Slinfold, Broadbridge Heath, Warnham (using the tunnel under - the 'train approaching' warning was sounding but we didn't see/hear anything) and Clarks Green arriving at Capel church at opening time - 3pm - what timing ! After a lengthy break we started splitting up depending on our destinations - I recorded just over forty miles but others will have done much more.

Sunday June 30 2013
On a roasting summer's day I was second last to Wetherspoons despite arriving by 0915!. Apart from the Editor, last year's riders all put in an appearance along with debs: Dave S, Keith, Paul, and Richard. Just after 1000 we were off leaving Bob to his own devices. From Shalford, we headed up through Munstead and past The Merry Harriers to rejoin last year's route near Shillinglee. Chris Evans's boarded up and forlorn looking Lickfold Arms signaled the start of THE climb with riders and walkers settling for a 4-all draw at the top. Then it was along the ridge and down the steep drop to the Duke of Cumberland, early so avoiding any crowds.Suitably refreshed, the drop had to be reversed so there was more walking for some. But soon we were off the A286 searching for the Woolbeding Common viewpoint (so troublesome to locate on my recce due to over-confidence). On the short off-road section Janice took a tumble injuring only her pride.
Once upon a time a route through Litchmere and Hammer would have led only to the A3 but nowadays it goes under and so got us to Hindhead's NT cafe. We refueled on cakes before tackling the long and surprisingly quiet downhill to Thursley. After a further descent to Elstead, the only remaining barriers were Farncombe Hill and Littleton meaning we were back in Guildford around 1630.I'd lopped four miles off the route though it didn't feel any easier so 50 miles and 4000+ feet of climbing.

Sunday 23rd June 2013
Fat chance of me reaching Banstead by 0900 so I settled for an 11s rendezvous at Godstone though I shouldn't have tried the very muddy (for the time of year) Banstead Heath.
Just four (Ed, Dave, Helene, me) climbed Tilburstow to encounter not one but two events (a road race and a sportif) near Crowhurst. From Edenbridge, we headed towards Four Elms and then it was upwards. The climb felt harder than anyone could recall; at the top all was revealed - we were at Toy's Hill (100 feet higher than the intended Ide Hill)! But it was one o'clock and The Fox And Hounds was both close and eager to feed us.
A long after lunch downhill brought us to Brasted and then it was upwards again along the Pilgrims Way. By White Lane it was my chance to lead the others astray though we retraced from near Beaver World. Thankfully four miles later we were at Farleigh Church for double helpings of cakes.
Cloudy, very windy, occasionally drizzly - not at all weather to grace the longest Sunday of the year. Around 70 miles door-to-door.

Another new start point this morning...........Cafe Nero in Reigate's Old Town Hall.
Just Ed & Dave joined me at the strike of ten to ride the delightful Lonesome Lane to Waitrose in Horley.
By collecting a "MyWaitrose" card,this will entitle you to a free tea or coffee,with few conditions.
http://www.waitrose.com/home/mywaitrose/free_tea_or_coffee.html
Brian was out on his new Van Nicholas but returned home with Terry.
Seven of us climbed the B-road past Tulley's Farm to briefly mingle with the L2B bike ride at Turners Hill but soon turned off toward West Hoathly & Sharpthorne.
At Tyes Cross we headed south up and down a couple of hills to Chelwood Gate PH.
No food here (due to Father's Day) so after a quick glance at the map,a "PH" appeared to be a short distance away in neighbouring Chelwood Common.
For info:The Coach & Horses is a good establishment but is marked by a phone box on OS 187 not PH sign!!!
The delay in finding food caused a 2.30pm departure but we were soon descending then climbing to Danehill and an additional stop at Horsted Keynes station (to view the Bluebell Railway).
The original plan was to rejoin the Turners Hill road going north to Ardingly but this idea was abandoned thanks to the L2B which still had to clear this part of Sussex (the road was basically closed north bound until 6pm).
Plan B involved riding with the mass to Lindfield where we took a right to tea at Borde Hill gardens.
Tea & a teacake £3.00 between 2 & 4.........happily served at 4.05pm in our case :-).
74.90 from Ewell.
Light rain am.........sunny and warm late pm.

Goodbye Deanna
Many friends and family attended the service at Randalls Park @ 11.45am today. Fitting tributes were given by Anthony a long time friend of Deanna & a C&M member. He was clearly devoted to her and as with all her family & friends will miss her a lot. Perhaps the most fitting tribute was given by her brother Vincent who gave very moving and heart felt memories of his early years with his sister and more importantly in recent years until her passing. She was apparently a remarkable woman who after retiring took two degrees, one in art and the other science - quite an achievement!
The pictures show those cycling friends that were able to make the service. It was good to see Pat Mathews there thanks to David & Dawn who gave her a lift. (excuse the plastic bag in my hand it contained 2 trophies for Collin Quemby)
