As promised my 'planned' trip for this weekend.

Initially it was:

• R70 to Richmond
• Then cover 391 to Sands End
• Take 391 back to Fulham
• After that, take the fastest route to Lewisham Station
• Then, to take a 208 from Lewisham to Orpington, Perry Hall Road
• Short hop to Orpington to cover 51 end-to-end
• From Woolwich take any bus to Plumstead to cover 53 back into Central London
• From Whitehall, cover quickest route to West Brompton, to cover 190 back to Richmond
• R70 back to base

Planned to leave at 10am.

In reality it was:

• 111 to Kingston
• 57 from Kingston to Wimbledon
• 156 from Wimbledon to Vauxhall
• 436 from Vauxhall to Lewisham
• 208 from Lewisham to Perry Hall Road
• 353-R4-R6 from Perry Hall Road, first Walnuts Centre, then War Memorial then Orpington Station
• 51 from Orpington to Woolwich
• 96 from Woolwich to Plumstead
• 53 from Plumstead to Whitehall
• 159 from Whitehall to Marble Arch 
• 74 from Oxford Street to Hyde Park Corner
• 10 from Hyde Park Corner to Hammersmith
• 190 from Hammersmith to Richmond 
• R70 back home

Left at 11:10, got home 22:00. Not going to be doing such trips for a couple weeks now, gotta do Uni Work!

'Clean' 51, 53, 156 and 208 can now join the list of covered routes

Please don't think I'm being critical but why didn't you just walk up one stop from Whitehall to T Sq to catch the 9 to Hammersmith? Going via Oxford St can't have been much fun.

Had to pop to M&S so went via Oxford Street. Lots of traffic in and around Picadilly, so wasn't too fun there!

[COBO]

Just done the 92 and 224.

School routes: 635 (Bell Corner - Brentford only), 698

[Deleted]

My dream is to travel on each route in order, not necessarily from end to end, but trying to go from one route to the next numerical route where they meet. I do realise it is not possible to do so completely.

The routes I have done from end to end are:

6, 9, 12, 13, 14, 24, 55, 63, 88, 134 (including to & from Potters Bar when it did that distance), 184, 188 and P13 (this one actually in separate sections).
I try and ride one when I visit from Up North tha knows!

[sid]

I also did the 134 from TCR to PB back in the day.

A few other memorable ones from my younger days.

59 (Sunday only) Old Coulsdon to West Hampstead

68 South Croydon to Chalk Farm

22 Putney Common to Homerton

36 Queens Park to Hither Green

37 Peckham to Hounslow

40 Norwood Junction to Wanstead, only doable on Sundays

196 Norwood Junction to Tufnell Park

124 Forest Hill to Bexley Hospital, again only doable on Sundays

171 Forest Hill to Tottenham Bruce Grove

73 Hounslow (Sunday only) to Stoke Newington

21 Moorgate to Sidcup

77A Kings Cross to Raynes Park

[jay38a]

Going on the same theme as Sid:

The old Route 21: West Kingsdown to Moorgate - one morning journey started from West Kingsdown (the 06:20) prior to 1997 and went all the way to Moorgate taking over 2 hours there was no return journey so was only possible in the morning. The journey was supported by Kent County Council, I surprisingly wasn't the only passenger on board.

There's loads of others I've done recently though, that was just one that stuck out for me.

[overgroundcommuter]

Another old route list from end to end.

12 - Elmers End Garage to East Acton and also Shepherd's Bush Green to Dulwich
12A - Peckham to South Croydon Garage (on the Leyland Nationals - Never did the overlapping section from Norwood Junction to Purley Old Lodge Lane)
37 - Peckham to Richmond (Curtailed to Richmond by this time)
63 - Kings Cross to Crystal Palace

176 - Oxford Circus to Penge
