Thanks to Susie assisted by Jill for our ride today.
I have attempted to map this out and failed.
At least here is the basic idea! Route map (ish)
We left SHP, meandered through lots of cycle paths in Bracknell crossing through Lily Hill Park. Somehow cut through the back of a Library and got into Ascot Racecourse, out the other side and arrived at Black nest Gate entrance to Virginia Water. Tea stop, then through to The Saville Garden, and somehow managed to reappear at the Watersplash Lane Entrance where we often start our ride. Full mark to Susie for not getting us lost once!
A few photos.
