By the way , the circuit was used again on August the 4th this year for another cycle race ( Boris Johnson made it all the way round) , the route was not exactly the same but we were stuck in the middle of it and I could only sus out one small lane as a way of driving out of the loop. Back to the thread, the circuit on Aug 4th I know went past our quizzy location. |

For a second I thought you were onto something when I scanned your post as I saw king and John but then realised you were not referring to King John- there a clue, it was King John who was the king referred to in the quizzy's first clue. |

The cycles on the Olympic circiut I think and the Prudential RideLondon did sweep down from Newlands Corner past the Silent Pool on route towards Dorking. Well done John, I have one pic of The Silent Pool on POE, not one of my best I must say. |
