First sunday training ride

Our first ride was a great success. What a lovely day!

Rachel, Nick, Luke and I set off at 5 past 9, rode over Epsom Common up over Headley and down Pebble Hill - Nick speeding past and wooshing round the bend.

Lots of cyclists out everywhere. The Pearson Sportive and the Evans ride all on our roads. Through Leigh, left at pub and into the back of Reigate then south down main road. Right following signs to Norwood Hill and ended up coming into Newdigate, then right to Henfold Lakes.
Dave and Mike M met us there and we enjoyed egg bacon baps in the sun looking at the fluffy chicks.

As we left, this flash cyclist in Pearson kit on a Pearson bike flew in with a friend and we realised it was our Steve! We rode with them to Box Hill then parted ways as they were doing the Pearson ride.
45 miles and back by 1pm. Perfect!

Next sunday is the 2nd training ride and Me, Dave, Nick and Luke are doing it so come on you lot join us in a slightly longer ride next week.
