Sunday the 3rd August 2025
What a day, got to Staines fine, left 11’s, flat rear tyre, repaired and off we go, level
crossing barrier down, off we set again. Egham, level crossing barrier down. Through
Egham and a short stretch of the A30 heading up to Englefield Green, road works
and traffic lights, I think we encountered another 3 road works with lights during the
day.
Eventually we entered Windsor Great park(WGP) and left to take the edge of the
Peanut round about, through Crambourne and then Maidends Green and Nuptown,
hen Wellers Lane took us to lunch at Moss End and on;ly about 1.20. At this point
Dave W headed for home to do allotment duties.
There were delays with food as they were a tad busy, we elected to sit outside for
about 15 minutes until the rain started, and then quickly changed our minds, luckily
there was seating enough for us all. The food was good and we were soon ready
for our photo session. Time to do the road again. Heading South and Warfield,
then along Forest road to the gated Coach road, and into Ascot race course. We
avoided the jumps and came out on the A330 before turning into New Mile road
down to Cheapside, it looked expensive to me!
We were soon at Blacknest Gate of WGP, but as we had already been in the park,
we turned onto the A329 to Virginia Water, tea was planned for Walton Mariana, but
we decided on the Ferry cafe instead, it was a straight run from there to tea apart
from a loo stop at Chertsey Bridge Hotel. Only 4 stopped for tea, Andy, Pam, Karl
and I, Liz, Niall and Martin headed directly home. It was nice to see Graham and
David Vine at 11’s. Thank you all for joining the ride today, luckily the rain was very
short lived. Thanks to Dave W and Andy C for back Marking.
