Pretty close between the top 4 places with Elm clearly the place to finish and apologies to my team mates for bad route planning decisions, slow running speed and poor door positions
Also to missing James result in the pub
We had a nice gathering and a few games of darts in the Angel in the Fields with Nozza bossing that double 1
Thanks for all this in attendance and dreading next years already, I still maintain this is far worse than a full network
I would probably have been looking at something like an 08:26 finishing at Newbury Park (assuming everyhting running smoothly and some very tight connections were made).
I'm guessing there may be an optimum circular route for visiting all the parks and finishing back where you started (which of course you wouldn't do), which could be 'rotated' depending on where you start - though some finishing points are clearly better than others (Moor Park, Elm Park, Newbury Park) as avoiding a lengthy double back.
