When I played support to Geoff (& Neil til 8pm) for Tube 8 we did it in February and it was crazy. Very cold, icy pavements and the potential for more weather related problems than in the summer.

Contrast this with Tube Relief where everyone was running round in shorts and T-Shirts at 5am!

Consider your date carefully.

Very cold, icy pavements and the potential for more weather related problems than in the summer.

This is also extended to the track and systems of London Underground especially the end Amersham end of the Met at 5.30am.

Nothing worse than getting off to a bad start due to frozen points.

Anyway good luck with the planning.

Hi,

Will hopefully have more details up on the website later this week aswell as participant forms etc for dare deveil challengers or those that wish to be support staff on the day.

I certainly will be a dare devil challenger :)

More challengers + lots of fun = Lots of Money raised for BBC Children in Need.

isn't this just another way of starting the 'Shall we do Tube Relief 2006' argument?

I hope I haven't just started it now...

^Lol, quite probably.

Remember there are leaf fall timetables from October through January every year for zones A-D.

Otherwise, I think it's fine that you're doing it but I probably won't come along. I'm already doing a challenge for charity later this month, so it would probably be quite difficult to raise money from all my contacts twice in such a short period of time.

Then again, if there are going to be lots of people doing it, I wouldn't want to miss out.

I'll have to think about this one and see how the discussion pans out.

Visit the website now.

This is for BBC Children in Need 2006 Appeal, not a Guiness World Record attempt. The fundraising event shall use the rules as supplied by GWR.

If you wish to take part please register, even if you are not sure, we shall be confirming attendance at a later date nearer the event day.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TAKE PART ALL MONEY IS GOING TO A GOOD CAUSE. AND PROBABLY WILL GET A LOT OF PUBLICITY FOR THE EVENT.

A Press Release is due to go out late July 2006 to all National and some Regional News Papers and Television.

Looking good, Taylorit, but:

You can't use black cabs!!!

In order to avoid any unnecessary confusion, do you think you could put something on your front page linking to this website?

Thanks.

Hi,
Sure will do sometime later on this evening. Use this site as the forum?

Matt

You can if you wish, yes.

I think Neil meant something like"If you are looking for the history of the Tube Challenge and its community, click here to go to tubechallenge.com"...

That's exactly what I meant.

Someone may accidentally type .co.uk instead of .com or find it in a Google search instead.

of course, neil geoff you taking part or wish to give us some advice/help on organising the fundraising event??
