Short but sweet.... like this report:

Arrived NSP later than planned but not many riders in attendance, nor did we have a leader for the ride to Telegraph Track. However, following a scrum down with Anna, it was agreed that I would lead the outbound route (subject to the vagaries of Beeline - and my memory!). Anna was confident in her knowledge of the return route so off we set, with Roger, Mick, Clive and Mark.
We passed Paul coming into the park, delayed by a puncture, but in the event he decided not to join us. We then met Roland as we passed through Sutton and thankfully he did decide to join us (otherwise I would have developed a serious inferiority complex!)
Arrived at Telegraph Track without any navigation errors, despite Beeline taking a nap in Carshalton. We paused briefly on the narrow path to allow for a nervous filly being led past us. Then we headed off again until we reached our coffee stop at Flittons.
Apart from a soon-remedied chain malfunction on Clive's bike, ably assisted by Mick, we sailed through the mostly traffic-free roads of Carshalton Beeches and Sutton. Most of the group peeled off at Mulgrave Road, leaving just Mark and I heading back to Cheam (meeting ColinQ pedalling in the opposite direction!), and arriving long before darkness descended.
