Oh no! I've always wanted to meet Bobbo of tagging fame (and also maker of the most amazing Nyan cat cake). Another time ...
Get thee to the Raven on a Thursday

Am in awe of how many people want to mooch round London looking a drain covers with us! I've update OP with final route (pretty much unchanged).
For the dedicated, a bit of background on some of the places we're going to (well mostly standing on top of):
Bagnigge Wells and Mount Pleasant
http://www.sub-urban.com/lost-bagnigge/The Mail Rail
http://postalheritage.org.uk/page/mailrail39 Furnivall St - Kingsway tunnels
http://www.lfgss.com/post2621812-5555.html
http://www.lfgss.com/post2622262-5573.htmlAldwych Station
http://underground-history.co.uk/aldwych.phpLower Robert St
http://www.lfgss.com/post2144517-2151.htmlThe heat accumulator at Churchill Gardens
http://www.lfgss.com/post2497696-4842.htmlThe Camberwell Submarine
http://www.lfgss.com/post2118018-1933.html
http://www.lfgss.com/post2118040-1935.htmlDeep level stations at Stockwell and Clapham North
http://www.lfgss.com/post2521693-5083.html -
• #121
There are the deep level stations at Belsize Park and Camden too which might not be too far off route.
-
• #122
Camden one is a bit tricky to find (I never have) so might be a bit of a "fun" thing to do. (I believe it's in a Waitrose carpark and I'm sure you all know just how much FUN there is to be had in a Waitrose carpark.)
-
• #123
How about the Brunel tunnel/museum? Fascinating place.
-
• #124
Oops sorry. Just looked at your route. This would be too far east anyway.

Barry Mason, who taught me so much about everything, did an amazing Subterranean London ride in 2010 as part of the London Festival of Architecture.
In his write up he said:
"London Hydraulic Power covers on Bermondsey Wall East, Robert Hulse down the Brunel tunnel shaft, Father Mark in St Mary's amazing crypt, Kim's South Korean Old Justice pub cellar, through the Rotherhithe tunnel, founder Jools on Wapping Hydraulic Power station and the stunning pendulums there, 13 floors down the deepest car park in Europe, Crossbones grave yard, Union Street orchard."
It was an unforgettable ride. One of the last I did with him.
Ace - we now have two actual facts. One of which is about Boadicea and may or may not be true.
