Invitation to B Group Ride 21st October

Elevenses will be at Layla’s café, The Street, Effingham KT24 5LQ

This is the same ride route I had last October, enjoyed by those who joined it.

The morning ride into deepest Surrey Hills, will be 16.5 miles with about 1,700 ft of elevation but that elevation is concentrated in a few challenging hills such as Row Lane, Winterfold Heath road and Raynor road but we will be rewarded with lesser -known scenic heaths and woodland areas including the iconic Jelley’s Hollow. Lunch will be at The Royal Oak, in beautiful Holmbury St Mary.

The afternoon ride will be 14 miles and about 1,000 ft of elevation, concentrated in a few big hills as we head back up to the ridge at Green Dene via Hoe Lane, Purser’s Lane and Combe Lane/Bottom.

Tea will then be a short ride away at Café Barbera, Stoke D’Abernon.

I shall be joined by my two intrepid co-leaders, Mick A and Tim G.

The Royal Oak pub requires pre-orders so I need to know your lunch preference before 5pm Monday evening at the latest, so I can email the pub that evening.

You can see the menu below. There is a wide variety to choose from, including sandwiches.

If you would like to join the ride, please email me fdsilva82@gmail.com directly before 5pm Monday evening. Thanks.

Look forward to seeing you on Wednesday.
