lolol :lol:

We're running around the London underground, not discussing nuclear weapons technology; if people want to share stuff they're welcome to.

I came up with a bad [275] route, had a go and found why they didn't work, and asked for help on here, resulting in a moulded route and some new friends. If others want more help from the start, there's enough across the web, and no-one is forcing you to read these forums!

Sounds like a jittery world-record holder to me....

Don't try to bait me with comments like that :-)

If I didn't hold the record I'd still be worried about everyone handing out info left, right and centre.

Anyway, Peter started it!

lol tubeguru sounding like a schoolboy there! but i did indeed start it. tpkfar... i'd personally think that routes can be shared, but perhaps over PM's? otherwise any tom dick or harry can get hold of it.

PS when choosing us screen name did u sneeze when typing and come up with tpkfar?

but nothing makes me different from any Tom, Dick or Harry!

I've just hung around the forum for a while, that's all.

And tpfkar is not a sneeze thank you :evil:

It's an acronym. See if you can guess it.....

Hahaha! I had to use Google, but I know it now. Very clever!

I already know the answer to this one, but tried Googling it anyway, can't see much that would give it away! Except for one item about a guy called Ryan :P.

You may want to consider moving the entire northern section forward in the day (Edgware, Stanmore, High Barnet, Cockfosters).
I was going to say exactly the same thing!

My theoretical doubles back on Stockwell-Brixton - I'm not sure there's any other way of doing this sensibly. The BR from Brixton goes straight to Victoria going North and the other way doesn't (it seems to me) go anywhere of use for the Challenge - unless someone know different. There are buses from Clapham North/Clapham Common but they don't seen to offer any time savings.

HOWEVER, to cover Pimlico & Vauxhall you might want to consider tube from Victoria to Vauxhall then BR to Waterloo (or vice versa).
