This Sunday's ride to Windsor

I had planned a highly exciting ride, but in view of the forecast cold weather, my ambition has been scaled scaled back to go on roads that should be ice-free.  I did a recce today after a very cold night, and there was no ice except for a couple of small frozen roadside puddles.  Lunch is at Windsor, either at Cinnamon Cafe or its sister establishment the Windsor Pie Cafe, which shares some of the same menu, plus pies!   And it's also indoors, with heating.   About 16 miles to lunch from Twickenham, and 14 back to tea at Shepperton.  The biggest hill is the climb up to Windsor Castle, although there are several serious motorway bridges to climb over.

You are warmly invited to join me for the ride:  11s at Twickenham Wetherspoons, The William Webb Ellis, which has bike parking just opposite, just outside the police station.   Wrap up warm.
