Details
This Saturday 20th October the LBS CC are planning to hold an Autumn Surrey ride.
The route will be approximately 84km from Richmond Park (there are train stations around the area we are cycling in case you fancy putting your feet up for the return journey). This is a great excuse to start off your winter training as you mean to go on through the delightfully awful British winter. There will of course be a coffee stop at the top of Box Hill and maybe a pasty for those that fancy it.
For those that wish to return by train, there are regular trains from Dorking to Waterloo that you could jump on back to London if you wish.
