Overview

Along the trail to Colley Hill, then steeply downwards to quiet roads in Reigate by Red Cross. Across Reigate Park to the SE corner, then more roads to Redhill Common with its magnificent view. A steepish descent to the church then divert across Earlswood Common to lunch at The Plough (drop off possible at Earlswood Station after 5 miles). Regain the MT and past the hospital to reach Salfords (buy a single to return to East Croydon, or travel back at length on the 420). Text me to book by Monday 6pm.
