well in response to that you will have to ask steveo as he has the paper route and its conditional on him too releasing i just have my memories of the day despite drunkness haze remembers more than martin.

besides in two months the whole route you can go and research anybody can nigel is doing that himself with son (surfice to say we did have the option tubeguru is right to release or not)

surfice to say we have given you all a most recent world record route people should be thankful to us for even considering releasing it!.

Both Andi and Steve had the option to not reveal this route to the artist, but they chose to do so. If anyone feels aggrieved that "secret" information has been made available too readily, then the fault lies squarely with Andi and Steve.
I'm not blaming Andi & Steve for releasing their route - I think it is great that the tube challenge is so publicly commemorated in the Labyrinth project and I'm sure I would have volunteered my route had I been a record breaker and been asked. Personally, I just think it would have been better to leave it as challenge for anyone determined enough to track them all down, rather than presenting the route on the Labyrinth site. Perhaps I am being naive though, as social media would probably have ensured that the full route would have been published on-line fairly soon.

Doubt that they changed at South Ken for the Circle line rather than Gloucester Road.

The change at South Ken is far nicer a change than Gloucester Road. Just an elevator rather than a lifts.

I prefer Gloucester Road, just as I prefer Baker Street rather than Finchley Road when changing between the Met and the Jubilee.

Why? Surely speed is the deciding factor with Tube Challenging and your preferences are slower.

I can see why maybe coming southbound as you can maybe get a minute up by switching Met to Jub later or similarly northbound if switching the other way but otherwise you're wasting time.
