is a roundabout which I turn right at!!! It's only a three exit roundabout and I can see all the traffic approaching it, most mornings I enter it in second, get the power down real early and can get the tyres squeeling round it.

My journy to college down the A41 always involves a quick 120MPH dash to college at 9:22AM when the roads clear  ;D Much love for the A41

The cab is now deemed too precious for every day driving, so I now drive the X-trail to work.
The cab just gets to come out on sunny days (a rarity at the moment),
But when I used to drive it in, I used the 3 mile back lane, which was very twisty with nice low hedges so you could see a fair distance ahead

The best thing about my journey to work??

Errr, not a lot really. 2 mobile speed traps and 1 blackspot en route. Most of the 10 mile journey can be done over a ton if you want. Not very interesting.

journey to work

10 minute walk to the station - boring
35 minute train ride to victoria - boring
10 minute bus ride to marble arch - boring
5 minute tube ride to tottenham court road - boring
ten minute walk through covent garden to the office - honey spotting heaven.......(makes it all worth while)
Title: Re:The best thing about my journey to work
Post by: richy on 07 July 2004, 12:22
I used to work in London (nr Bank station), until Dec 03. Hated the tube.  
Now I work in Wycombe - 30 mins bomb down the A404  ;D  

Normally leave home early to beat the traffic - nothing worse than sitting in a traffic jam when you could be screaming along   :P
