Well I cannot believe that some six and a half hours after it finished, no one has been on here to comment on the winner.
Was the winner confirmed as 66 Feet Under with their time of 2hr 56min, 51sec? I know that they were leading when I left.
Anyway, congrats to everyone who took part - and thanks to those that organised it.
Same time next year???

I've been checking every 10 mins since 4pm. How sad is that?

Could anyone who took photos also email them to me (if you'd be so kind)?

I took a few pictures; the best ones being one of the assembled throng before the event and a coupleof the winners collecting their trophy from a somewhat miffed-looking Geoff 'n' Neil!
I'm in the KCL library now so I can't send them. I will when I get home (about 8pm or so).

You must have caught them in a moment of quiet reflection.
Anyway, they beat you Maskboy so you can't exactly gloat
My pictures from the day are currently stuck in a developing machine in Jessops and I am going to be writing to their head office , for all the good it will do me.
I won't be doing my write up until I have the pictures as I want to put them in the text. So bear with me and I'm sure Geoff will do a much more jaunty, personal anecdote-type write up, wheras this one will be more factual

Could I also ask everyone who took part to email me their route in as much detail as possible and as soon as possible to
tubeguru@tubechallenge.com so we can put them all up.
Don't feel you're giving away trade secrets here - everyone knows more or less how to do each bit of Zone 1 by now
Thankyou very much
Tubeguru
(Text will do fine - no need to send me an annotated JPG of it all!)
