An EXPERT ride in an area through the idylls and airfields that surround the town of Gadalming (NB The first town in the world to have electric public street lighting). Not renown for easy, traffic free riding - the area is criss-crossed by major arterial roads from London and between major towns of the area. But this ride should allow you to find the home counties idyll that so inspired poet laureate John betjeman nd is epitomised in his poem 'A Subaltern's Love-song. Given good weather you too can become 'furnish'd' and burnish'd' by the same sun that rendered Miss J Hunter Dunn so beautiful. GEARS: 39x23, better a 39x25, but a compact is best to enjoy the finishing climbs; BIKE SHOP: Godalming Cycles 01483 420036; INFO: www.godalming-tc.gov.ukby thunderthighs
