NB Meet at 2:30pm for a 3pm On Out!

Hare: The Optimist

There will be a trail of chalk P arrows from Ealing Broadway station (District/Main line) to help you find this pub. We will meet at the pub around 14.30, ready for a very prompt run start at 1500 hours, in order to get round the Trail before darkness descends. The pub will store our bags during the run. Transport for London will be providing a Saturday service on Boxing Day TFL information so please allow extra time for this, or get on your bike.    The Hare is Optimist and he has promised that the trail will be under five miles with plenty of shortcuts for walkers.

05 December 2019 Osterley A-B

Run Number 1788 – An A to B run starting from near the station

This will be an A to B run. There will be a trail of chalk P arrows from Osterley tube station to the Hare’s car, which will be parked in Jersey Road (or just off) to the north and east of the station Map Link and the run will start from his car, wherein bags can be left for transportation to the end of the run, so long as you turn up on time for 19.15 hours, turn up later and you may have to carry your bag on trail. The trail will be substantially off- road, and therefore muddy and it will be dark, so bring a TORCH, you will need it, and a some dry shoes for after the run. To keep things interesting, and this Hare does like to keep things “interesting”, the destination (B) will be kept a secret! But it has good transport links and will be easier to get home from (for most) than Osterley. In case you get lost the Hare will have his mobile and will check it occasionally, the number will be given out at the start and will be in the weekly email. The Hare is Rambo

Hare: Rambo

Hare: Yorky Porky

P-trail will be from Northolt station (central line). An alternative, and possibly better, option would be to take the 487  Bus from Alperton or Sudbury Town  towards South Harrow and get off at Keble Close stop which is outside the pub.
