Welcome aboard Donald,
The two guys who hold the world record are Geoff Marshall (aka *****) and Neil Blake (aka TubeGuru) although Neil is not in the Tube program that is shown on sky as it was one of Geoff's previous partners (!) who was taking part then.

Hello all.
I am glad I came in contact with
http://www.tubechallenge.com/index.html
and now the forum.
Please let me introduce me to you. I am Maarten Otto, 21 years old and live in Zandvoort (30 Km from Amsterdam).
Three years ago, I came in contact for the first time with the Underground while visiting london for just 4 days. I came for trainspotting, and Arrived by Eurostar. At Waterloo I was astonished by the underground line, taking me to London Bridge (The JLE) With my trolley, I got deeper and Deeper, followed by a long tunnel. Finally I arrived at the platform, where I saw the PED's. Where I saw a modern Underground line......
At Sydenham (southeast London) where I had my B&B they advised me to go to the LTM, and so I did.
Since that day, I don't come to London for the trains, but for the underground aswell.
And If you want to know,
I'd like to do a challenge

If you want to see ANOTHER programme about it (with, er ... me in it again!) then head on over to:
http://www.*****.co.uk/tubechallenge/media2.htm
Where there are two WMV files that you can stream/download and play - i'm sure you'd like it!
Those are very interresting programmes, thanks for showing me the link!
You can very close in that attempt, how did it fell to miss out by only 4 minutes, yet at the same time, beat your own personal record?
