Hello ladies

Looking at our riders list, I think that there will be an interest to ride a less flat return from Dorking to Leatherhead. Thus I have redrawn our route to return via Headley Lane (Juniper) with the option to ride up and down Zig Zag road. Zig Zag road is 1.75miles up to the café.

We will be carefully pacing our ride with stops, and please feel free to ride at your own pace especially on the hills. We will keep and eye on everyone, and no one will be abandoned! For those who wish, we will practice group riding skills on flatter sections; these will come in useful on the day.

Our stops are:
(1) Dabbling Duck in Shere 20miles (we will have ridden up Staple Lane, which is parallel to and a quieter option to Newlands Corner)
(2) If we need it - Wotton Hatch pub 33miles (we will have ridden up Leith Hill)
(3) Box Hill 40miles

Feel free to shout should you like to take a train home:
(1) Dorking station 37miles 2400ft (you will have ridden up Staple Lane and Leith Hill)
(2) Leatherhead station c.47miles 3150ft (after Leatherhead, there are no more big hills, and you will ridden 88% of all the climbing)

Or if you live Epsom way and would like to leave us in Leatherhead (46miles). We would recommend cycling into Leatherhead as there is a long down then sharp up into the town which is part of the RideLondon100 route (unless they decide to change the route this year!)

For the full route of 61miles, we may not be back until around 4pm.

Please feel free to contact me/us if you have any concerns and questions. The weather forecast at the moment is looking just right! Including some sun :)

Much looking forward to seeing everyone!

Kind regards,
Deborah Liew and Sarah Fielder
