Bryan S's G3/4 Ride: Ten of us set off at a steady pace, with a few shiny new bikes on show from Heidi and Beth, heading out to Copthorne then up Turners Hill, on to Ardingly and Duddleswell. All was going well with lots of chatter as we made our way through the quiet lanes until we neared Ashdown Forest where we stopped to take a quick snap and bask in the sunshine.
After a couple of fast descents and a detour on the A22, we made our way to the Taffels cafe in Forest Row. Plenty of cakes and breakfast sandwiches taken on board and a more direct return up to Tanbridge (thanks Phil for directions) where a breakaway led by Fiona who took the A25 back whilst the remaining group took in a few more hills via Rabies Hill Road.
Thanks everyone for a great ride,
Bryan
