Wow Matt you really are something else. However I quite like this Rotherhithe to Wapping idea... I'm struggling to think of a simple route!

It’s funny when reading the ''Roth-Wapp'' challenge I thought it would be I piece of piss to do. But now I’m looking at a map it’s a nightmare, but I love the idea of it!

Perhaps I have misunderstood something about the Rotherhithe to Wapping Challenge - I know that you aren't allowed to enter zone 1, but do you have to go around zone 1? Also, can you take a bus through zone 1, as you would be allowed to on a travelcard that didn't cover zone 1?

Well how else are you going to get there?

Windsurf of course! As it is impossible to arrive at Rotherhithe or Wapping on a tube train, I would assume that GWR rules do not apply.

I assume you'll be banning the riverboats too. :)

More seriously, I think the Rotherhithe-Wapping challenge is an excellent idea. I think for buses we could use the congestion charge zone as a convenient boundary that is roughly the same as zone 1.

I'd be up for it! I'm not in the country so often though.
