Remember when half an hour slower was deemed "unbeatable"!

I know a Ronan McDonald. He taught me physics at school. He always cycled into school though, so I wouldn't have thought it was him. This was the school that ran the Random 6 tube challenge where your team was allowed to split up and divide and conquer, though.
All London buses: 23 hours 25 minutes (with Adham, David, Josh and Tangy)
Holds some alternative challenge records. Not sure which ones.
20½ Random 15 challenges: 01:58:48 best
That guy who runs those Twitter polls about tube stations and London Boroughs.

Re: GWR Site is reporting a new World Record time ...
I'd love to know if they had a perfect run or even got lucky with some bus connections. I don't expect this to be beaten before the CRL opens now, considering the record has only been broken six times since Wood Lane was opened.
Is it also a coincidence that since Wood Lane, the record still hasn't been broken on a Tuesday or on a Wednesday?

Re: GWR Site is reporting a new World Record time ...
I reckon it could be beaten again. It needs a good run but it's not unbeatable

Ronald McDonald? I bet those clown feet got in the way a bit.
