Frank takes a trip to Happy Valley

Spurning the delights of the Purbeck Hills eleven of us elected to visit Fanny’s instead.
The route, uphill to Spring Bottom Lane and then the steep track to Willey Farm was fairly dry. From Willey Farm our way took us through the North Downs Way to Happy Valley, over the ridge to Hooley and on to Chipstead. Entering Fanny’s from the rear.

After the usual tea and cake a couple of riders left the group to make their own way.
The rest of us went back via Hooley, Stanstead Heath and North Downs Way picking up the N21 near Gravel Hil. The only incident being Adam (Dolphin) front tyre blow out with the tried and tested Toothpaste Tube (don’t know which brand) and tie making an effective repair.
Distance around 21 miles.

Frank.
