I thought that it was most unsporting of the crowd to heckle that bloke, when he's clearly having a very bad day.

Amazing stuff, I reckon that the TCDL final was better quality than the first leg.
One day I shall return!

Well for those who dont know me Im Sara Huntington (still officially :( ) former world record holder of july 8th 2008 with martin hazel and the nutter whom seems to go out nearly every month.I have attempted the full network 4 times completing 3 and 1 record and done 1 r15 which i did pretty badly blame the other half whom i rely on to get me round.

This year my aims are to compete in the 5 olympic challenges zone 1 and somehow get in to top 8 for the darts finals.

I'm Gregory.
I've grown up in South West London (and I live there in the summer), and worked in central London a few times. Now studying Computer Science at Durham University, although I've ended up at University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada for 10 months amongst my degree. Aged 23, or older depending when you read this.

I like to think I'm good at pool when played in a pub (and we've been there a while), I don't play darts and would probably be terrible.

No challenge attempts yet, but getting home in the evening I've done a bit of clever thinking to hop around last trains/buses and engineering works. Sometimes I've been clever to avoid engineering works and such (when you find out about them on route) going into London.

Welcome LastGrape. If you enjoy finding short cuts around engineering works then you're definitely one of us.

So Hi, I'm Rhys, 15 years old and hailing from Essex
Mental about the Tube Challenge, love London, full stop. Been addicted to London since I was 1.
Done first 3 attempts of the Challenge this year in Summer :D

Sure I've only done 219 stops in one day but I'm certain I'm Stortford's best..

Kids start early these days. Breastfed on the gateway drug of Milton Keynes, it's a slippery slope to full blown London addiction. A sure sign of Broken Britain *shakes head*

I have less hair now... (balding at 22 :() Most people know me as Richie, as that is my name, or at least a variation of it. I hate it when people put a 'T' in there, which is more often than you'd have thought... I am also currently wearing the same T-shirt that I am wearing in the above photograph, but hopefully not the same underwear (although, if I am, it has been put through the washing machine at least once, hopefully twice).
Inspired (possibly) by Matt, I too looked back through this thread to see my offerings, to find that I also have been here longer than I thought as I am now 24, 25 in a couple of months. Not that interesting in itself, but somehow I'm once again wearing the same T-shirt as I was in that photograph. I know though I am wearing different underwear, as I am currently wearing a pair of humourous boxers that Sarah #2 bought me during the breif (insert your own pun here) period we were together. I've also put on weight since this photo was taken - as I found out last week I've put on weight since February :(

Hi I'm Glen (23)

I'm currently living in Dorchester and work at Dorset County Hopital

I've only done the zone 1 challenge once on my own with a time of 3:59.01 (Got lost Algate East and had a crap route).

I plan to be at the Zone One challange this year since I have now finished Uni and no longer have to worry about exams in June! Yay

Just looking back through this thread, some people don't stick around too long do they!?

Also, I have never done my "who am I?" but I don't think I really need to these days :P
