26/02/2017 Chertsey, Egham, Staines, Shepperton,, Hampton Court and home

Sunday, February 26th, 2017

Went for a morning ride, time to burn the fat – there’s plenty to use !

I rode up Hanger Hill to the station then down Heath Road to the Chertsey Road

I went to Chertsey up Woburn Hill and through to head to Thorpe

At this point I must admit my aim was to head to Virginia Water – ho hum

Yep my plans went awry, the Egham 1/2 marathon is on so a divert or 3 was in order

I headed into Egham then over to Staines – the A308 / Runnymede roundabout is awful however you approach it !

I rode into Staines then headed out towards Laleham and Shepperton

I went through both towns on the way to Sunbury and carried on to Hampton Court

I now rode through Molesey and on to Hersham where I turned towards Walton and home

When I reached Queens Road I headed into town and went through to ascend Heath Road

I then went down Hanger Hill to Pine Grove and through to Princes Road

I cycled then to Hanger Hill and climbed on the way home

This is my first 30 miler of the year – they will get easier 🙂 (providing the wind buggers off)
