OK we are getting there on this one now......

Starting time at Richmond is 0552hrs and planning to finish at T5 is 0004 giving us a completion in 18hrs and 12mins....

At this moment in time the route is available for those who are 100% coming and as ever if anyone is about at anytime during the day that is not doing the full completion but can offer support this is very much appreciated, please please please :)

My car will be near Hatton X for the finish so can get anyone back to Feltham or very near vacinity after the challenge.....

Is that not a bit risky, a small delay and you will miss the last T4 train?

Very risky, but there is a lot of slack in it and any route starting near 6am and going up to Amersham and back is going to be close to the mark...... It all adds to the thrill of the day which is something you need to replace the buzz of not going for a GWR :P

I know that Nozza has stayed at Travelodge Feltham before which is very convenient for start / finish.
You can join me, Tangy and Glen on the 490 to Richmond then :wink:
