London's Transport Race/E1

	London's Transport Race - August 2022 - Expert

We've turned the difficulty up to 100 for this very special edition of London's Transport Race, brought to you by On Our Lines. Evolving our popular concept which sees teams head out across London to find six stations and a landmark, we held a successful trial run of the 'Expert' concept on Saturday 6th August 2022. So, what makes the Race 'Expert'? Simple! Rather than teams choosing curated sets of stations as with our 'ordinary' Races, instead they're choosing all six of their stations, and landmark, entirely at random! We also made one of the Side Quests compulsory to further up the ante! Teams Five teams competed in the Race, all of whom were veterans of previous Transport Races. All teams finished the Race.
