23/05/2015 one big fat loop, my first 50 mile ride in the bin :-)

Saturday, May 23rd, 2015

Went out for an morning ride on the cyclocross bike

Rode up Hanger Hill to the Station and then down Heath Road to pick up the Chertsey road

Rode over to Addlestone and on to Ottershaw to pick up the A245

Stayed on the a245 to Stoke D’Abernon where I rode across to the A243

Rode up past Chessington, it’s much harder work where the traffic is not queuing up – no taking it easy this time!

Carried on past Hook into Surbiton and on to Kingston where I rode round so I could head towards Hampton Court

After passing the Palace I turned to ride to Sunbury and on to Staines

At Staines I headed for Egham then on past Thorpe Park to St Ann’s Hill

Climbed the hill then rode on to pick up Green Lane to Addlestone

After this I rode on to New Haw and Byfleet to pick up the A245 again

I turned to ride Brooklands road to the station then turned into St Georges Avenue

Rode along Egerton road, then Gower Road to Queens Road

finished off the ride by going to Hanger Hill and riding up to home.
