Just a bit of fun! I was wondering, given the sheer size of London how far can you get from your area by using two bus routes? You can only change to another bus route once and walking is not permitted unless you have no choice but to walk to get a bus, also night buses and non TFL bus routes are not permitted unless they're the only routes locally available. So pick the bus route in your area and at point of changeover that goes the furthest. For me it's Foots Cray! The 36 from Queen's Park to New Cross Gate and the 321 from New Cross Gate to Foots Cray  |

If night routes count I can do Heathrow T5 by 188 > N9 via Aldwych.
If not, Biggin Hill is probably my furthest taking the 199 to Catford then the 320.
