Re: TUBE 25 SANTA ATTEMPT
Well to be honest, only mental people would even think about going out in January so I can't see anyone trying to challenge the record until at least Tube Olympics....

Re: TUBE 25 SANTA ATTEMPT
OK point taken. Other car park operators are available. As always, on-street parking's your best bet (and free if you know where to look).greatkingrat wrote:Looks like Andi will have to start at Hornchurch or Ickenham

I have now have a plan where to park my car for free and get to my intended starting position would anybody like to volunteer to do updates for the day.?
Re: TUBE 25 SANTA ATTEMPT
I think even if i had 24 attempts 24 records i still be going out friday and i got to admit tube 22 i did enjoy most of it being alone.I still think i can get up to the 52 attempts before something bad happens to me Garion has voluntered to do updates and im sure a few others will as well.Sam wrote:I had ice on the ground when I broke the record....

Re: TUBE 25 SANTA ATTEMPT
Andi started out at 06.23 but only ten minutes later, the train got delayed. Jad a phone call a short while later and was told that he was aborting (at 07.28) but decided to help some mystery challengers who are also giving it a go.
