  • Has anyone tried to cycle through all 32 London boroughs in a day?

    Had a cursory glance on this thread and couldn't see anything.

    Would take some careful route planning but thought it might be a cool challenge and a good way to see some more of this big ol' town.

    Anyone up for it?

  • Name a date

  • Might be in, go round in a large spiral ending up in the centre at the end!

  • Would be cool

  • You need to hit each one but you can't hit one more than once...

  • You mean all boroughs while avoiding the City of London? (London has 33 local authorities.)

  • [SIZE=5]|³|MA3K[/SIZE] is the man for this........oh and most definitely in, could we do it late October, November...Im booked til then .

  • GSiAD?

  • Groovy idea.

  • Why has nobody ever had it before?

  • GBSiaD--a pub in every borough?

  • The hardcore option is clearly to do borough tops instead.

    There was a discussion on doing a similar route years ago;

    ETA: the route google throws out for borough tops is 170 miles lol

  • great idea

  • Right, now, someone map the bastard... off you go bored students.. map it, map it good!

  • A strict spiral would involve swimming between Bexley and Havering, unfortunately.

    Edit: no it wouldn't, but you'd have to start the spiral in one of those two and go away from the river.

  • I think the routing would have to be something like this. Anticlockwise nearly works, but leaves us stuck in Lewisham waiting for them to build a bridge to Tower Hamlets.

  • I'll do some work now

  • ^^or a foot tunnel from Greenwich?

  • ^ Exactly. Start off to the west of Tower Hamlets and then use the foot tunnel at Greewich. Sorted.

  • You need to hit each one but you can't hit one more than once...
    And a spiral is an elegant way of doing this.

    We're not animals, dammit.

  • Can't we make it more phallic shaped?

  • ah, the cock and balls ride.

  • via bellendan road, shaftsbury avenue, etc

  • this is all well and good but shouldn't the ride start in Barnet?
