etting out from The Angel at 9.30 on a reasonble morning, a little bit of
mist in places but no noticeable wind, five intreped riders ventured out
into the unknown!!! Those riders being,
myself ( Mick Conway), Frank Grainger, Jaqui Philips, Cris Tyler, and big
Nick, who`s surname escapes me. Nick is soon to take over The Plough pub
at St. johns, I`m not sure if thats in Redhill or
Newfoundland. Well we set out for Ellens Green and every thing quite went
well, although Weare St. was a bit slippery with wet leaves, Cris was on
her new bike, and perhaps found a few aches and pains shes never had before.
Nick had some new gearing on his bike and was flying up the hills, well
they were short ones really. We got back to Newdigate and thought we
would have a cuppa at Zieglers now its re-opend as a tea-room again, however
it was no-go as it opens by appointment only on sundays and mondays. So we
continued home, all in all the ride went OK and both Jacqui and Cris are
quite fit and kept-up with the pace.
Regards Mick Conway
