A nice day out with Margaret and six fellow Loiterers. The ride started from Ealing Commom, though some of us cycled to the start point. Joining the Thames on the north side at Kew, we headed into London before crossing over to the "sarf side" (dragons be here) via Putney bridge for a morning coffee at the Rocket. Turning inland we headed for Wimbledon to weave our way through the tennis fans to Wimbledon Common. The good news is that the muddy Somme like surface that Captain Morgan took us through has been repaired. The bad news is that the surface is now sand and shingle, probably a bit like cycling through the Sahara. Having crossed the common we headed through Richmond Park for lunch at the Druid at Kingston. On the return leg Lisa had to pull out with bicycle problems, having had to call out him indoors to rescue her. We stopped off at the Plough at Norwood Green for a swift half in their very nicely refurbished garden before heading home.
Another top ride from Margaret on a nice sunny day.
Thunderbird 2 Award of the day goes to Lisa's husband.
