London is one of the few cities where I would prefer the public transport over a car.
Any good routes south of the river (or through city) if I set off from Oxford Circus area back to the north side of Tower Bridge? I am only a few minutes east from Tower Bridge north side.
Yes, it is only c. 4 miles each way. Unfortunately London public transport is rubbish at odd times.
I am usually in the office at around 0530-0545. The first DLR runs through Limehouse at 0532 and I often had a long wait at Bank due to the 9-min interval on the Central Line, resulting in me only getting into the office at c. 0615-0625, which is a bit late. I refuse to use night bus (takes too long) or the mini-cab (too costly) every morning.
The morning run in for me is 15-20 min. door to door. However, the evening run, leaving at c.1730-1800 has taken over an hour for the last 3 weeks.
