I walked it quite a few times when they used to use it for the old BRMB Walkathon, don't think i could do it now tho, Can only imagine what it felt like after cycling it, was bad enough walking lol
Travelled the 11 bus route all the way round loads of time when I was a kid.
When I was 11 I had a crack at cycling the route. Took me 4 hours on a 24" wheel single geared bike and my legs were wrecked. Got the time down to 2hrs and 15mins eventually on a three speed sturmey archer.

A Sunday afteroon outing was a ride on the number 11 bus round the outer circle. I can't remember how long it took but it was usually tea time when we got home. We never got off the bus, we would have had to pay again to get home, and none of the shops were open anyway.
It was unfortunate she was standing in front of the number plate. I notice a couple of dents in the front mud guard, and the low probably yellow fog lamp brings back memories of the fogs back then, and I remember once seeing a bus conductor walking in front of the bus to guide it in a thick fog.
