I've done the 16 and 98. Does end to end count when the bus is diverted to a temporary destination?

Harlesden doesn't seem that bad...  Did the 189 end to end today... pretty great. Quick and quiet. I'll be doing quite a lot of bus-surfing in the next two weeks  |

Even I haven't done this route from end to end. Its just SO long! It takes an hour to get from Holborn to New Cross alone! |

I've done the route end to end only a few times and is quite long and boring. I've found the 136 is a lot quicker than it by far. When traveling to Elephant & Castle and back to Lewisham or Catford I don't bother using the 171 anymore or even Old Kent Road routes. Can just literally make my journey into Central London by going back on myself to Grove Park to start my journey. |

Can just literally make my journey into Central London by going back on myself to Grove Park to start my journey. I never really use the 171 to go into Central anyway (unless I have LOTS of time). I always use the 172 (and sometimes I change and get the 168). If I'm lucky, it'll only take me about half an hour to get from Brockley to Aldwych  . Sadly that's never usually the case  . But practically, the Old Kent routes are the best for heading to Central quickly from the New Cross side. It's only when you're heading in the opposite direction during the rush hour you'll run into problems (which is one reason why I take the 171 sometimes). |

33 done today. What a great route... shame it isn't DD so you can appreciate more. Blasted Hammersmith Bridge. Taken a ride on the first 100 routes now. OK... I went on the 80 only for 2 stops because I was tired and carrying blinds with me |

I did spot your favourite lamppost 'dayburning' though lool. |
