Went out for a ride and walk with Iren

why 3 parts – the ride down to the pub, the walk to Walton Bridge and back, and finally the ride home

So firstly we rode down Hanger hill to the cricket pitch and then down Monument Hill

We turned into Monument Road and cycled to Grotto Road then Thames Street

Now we carried on to the Old Crown and parked the bikes up – so endeth Part 1

For Part 2 we walked along the tow path to the cafe at Walton Bridge for a coffee and a sprite

After the drinks we returned to the Old Crown to complete Part 2

Part 3 was a ride along Thames street to Monument Hill

Here we pushed the bikes up to the cricket pitch and turned into Hanger Hill

We rode home up the hill to complete Part 3

Went out for a morning ride to Kingston and back, it turned out to a bit mixed.

As the forecast was for a stinking hot day I banked on a load of traffic crawling to Chessington

I rode up Hanger Hill to the station and then down Brooklands Road to the A245

I then rode to Silvermere and along the lane to the M25 J10 roundabout

I looped round to continue down the A3 to the Ockham lane turn

I rode through to Martyrs Green and turned to towards Cobham

At Cobham I headed for Stoke D’Abernon I went round to pick up the A243

The traffic now was crawling where I could overtake them 🙂

After passing Chessington the traffic lightened out and headed through Hook to Surbiton

Now I rode to Kingston via Mini Holland and headed for the bridge which I duly crossed

I now rode the towpath to Hampton Court Bridge and on to Weybridge

I rode on to Portmore Park Road and then to the Chertsey Road via Wey Road

I turned into the Bourne Estate and rode by the river to Heath Road

Now I ascended to the station and rode home down Hanger Hill
