Todays attempt has been abandoned
The Met was a bit rubbish this morning, and i couldn't make up the lost time as I did on tuesday, so after ending up 25 down decided to regroup and plan some contingencies for tomorrow!

You may be interested to know that I wasn't the only tube challenger at Chesham this morning
No further correspondance on this subject will be entertained
P.S. freestyling today as a scenario i hadn't planned for occurred. I think i'm about 10 mins down.
