Wednesday 15th sees our annual A Group Ride to Horsted Keynes, where we meet the East Sussex CTC “veterans” on their home ground. Elevenses is at Tesco's, Hookwood just off Reigate Rd RH6 OAT. The Café upstairs is hi-tech with screen ordering only. Thankfully there is Greggs downstairs.
As an indication, Hookwood Tesco is about 19 miles from N Cheam, so if you need guidance getting there please let me know.
Lunch at the historic Green Man pub, Horsted Keynes, complete with CTC Winged Wheel. About 20 miles. The route includes the nicely-shaded gravelly Worth Way, which is easily rideable with road tyres. One longish climb at Weir Wood, but beautiful views and rarely visited lanes. With luck you may be able to witness the arrival of the Bluebell Railway’s daily steam train to Horsted Keynes.
Tea at Banstead after about 28 miles, and a couple of climbs, but downhill home for all.
The Green Man has requested us to pre-order lunch so please let me know if you are coming, by email or Spond, and your lunch choice by Monday evening, thanks.
