Last night’s Top Gear featured a race through rush hour London, from the western to eastern ends(?) of the North Circular.
James May drove a Chelsea Tractor. “The Stig” took public transport. Jeremy Clarkson went by speedboat. Richard Hammond went by bike.
The results?
1. Bike
2. Speed boat
3. Public transport
4. Car
They didn’t go into a lot of detail about the times, but public transport beat the car by 15 minutes.
