Fri 2nd March, to Burnham Beeches

[gbs]

Does anyone fancy a 100k jaunt from SW London to WGP, Taplow and on to Hedgerley for a pub lunch and return home. Leaving 0700 -0900 according to demand, expected rolling average 23/24 kph; navigation by map and memory so routing will not be absolutely precise when in the Beeches.

Wish I could gb - but that old devil called work... If you end up near Stanley Spencer teritory ie: Cookham Dean, try the Jolly Farmer - scene of a previous CycleChat feast and raffle, when we used to ride in plusfour and a bits, pringle socks and suck sherbert bon-bons for energy... The food was excellent. http://www.jollyfarmercookhamdean.co.uk/index2.html
Have a good ride and watch out for the Friday afternoon school run traffic!

Yes, Jolly Farmer is a good reward for completing the climb; I was there on a superb day last autumn. Tomorrow I will try the White Oak at Hedgerley - said to be cycle friendly.
