2/12 – Greensand Way and NDW

With a strong lockdown still in effect our second outing had to be local. We have a great routine running from Reigate Hill with it’s excellent coffee hut so there was no need to look elsewhere for our February base. What we did want to do was mix it up a bit so we plotted … Read more
