The 5 ring logo be used for all 6 events, but as with the London 2012 logo it can take on various different guises. Hope this settles the logo debate.... :)
My logo was rejected? I didn't realise I had even made a logo!

Now there is an idea, with nobody to police this you would have to very trusting..... Imagine walking down the stairs at interchange and hearing a train approaching, the temptation to run would be very hard to resist........ :twisted:

Wait, are we supposed to be acting safe and responsible on our tube challenges?
