Thanks Andi - note added to that effect on Wikipedia discussion page.

A probable "April Fool" edit to the main Tube Challenge article has also been reverted. It mentioned the "White Stig".

How do you do that, Soupie? I can't find the "Record time all London Underground stations" record on their website at all.
