Hi Das,
You are more then welcome along to the forum and the general tube challenging community. We'd love to hear about your attempts although there is never an obligation to post a specific route and some of the mystery is working it out for yourself. That said there are people who are more than happy to point you in the right direction and a general wealth of information. There are also several events throughout the year where groups meet up for smaller challenges such as the infamous Zone One, and 6 Random 15 challenges / year, keep an eye on the 'Alternative Challenges' board for details on those if you fancy it, and they normally end up with a pint or two in a pub for darts and general tube challenge chat.
Good luck with your charity attempt next month!
Andrew

Re: Tube Challenger
A pint?Yes definitely up for that Andrew,any advice on Kensington Olympia would be useful,the early ones are out of the question because of a Chesham start.
