It was a cold frosty morning that I rode down to Uxbridge, the first to arrive I did wonder how many would brave the cold and ride. Twenty three hardy loiterers turned out plus ten for the coffee club.
Dave Brown was leading the medium ride and nine of us followed him out of Uxbridge, across Denham Golf Course and on to elevenses at Denham Aerodrome. Disaster, The Crew Room Cafe was closed. Dave saved the day by leading us to Horn Hill to elevenses at The Dumb Bell.
Back into the cold air Brian and Paul left us for home and we were led back to Brawlings Lane and on to Little Chalfont and lunch at The Sugar Loaf PH. While waiting for lunch to be served Stuart and Alan attempted to raise the tone of the proceedings by having a round of Chess, Alan won.
After lunch we made our way towards Chorleywood and The Swillett, dropping down to the Uxbridge Road by way of Stag and Shepherd Lanes. We made our way though West Hyde and on to Denham Green and a tea stop at the Green Cafe after which the group dispersed.
Uxbridge to Uxbridge distance approx. 28 miles.
