I be surprised if said tube Person gave neil a route to try out as i told him if he broke it today it obviously wouldnt be quicker than the one he used.

Is there any point in any of us actually route planning anymore i still prefer putting all my connections into tfl journey planner retyping seeing what works failing replanning new starting stations new finishing stations.

I actually have started really toning down my attempts i have found a niche im not getting any younger 36 this year but have still got a nice fast pace in running and using that to get more completions i think i will get to 30 completions before i start looking at just 1 attempt a year perhaps.

As in this one?

http://www.cgreen.net/tube/route.php

I first saw this website years ago, not long after I saw Geoff on tv but never made any attempt based on it.

Well I think it's a bit obvious that that route is a tad out of date...I mean come on, I can't find the East London Line on my tube map anywhere...

Yeah that's the one!!

Apparently all that needs doing is removing the ELL, adding some extra special twists and with Geoffs support, it's a record breaker!! :lol: :lol:

It would be interesting to see how that route can be adapted to suit the network as it is now. As i've been told, the current time is hard to beat, but certainly not impossible.

If someone used it for example without the obvious stations and adjusted the timings would you have a legitimate claim for plagurism.

I recorded a parody of Mylo's Destroy Rock & Roll with that route. If anyone wants to hear it I'll put it on MySpace.
