New London Olympic Tube Map features sporting legends

...which means that 'Transport For London' have produced a version of the Tube Map that replaces all 361 tube station names with those of Olympic sporting legends.  Each underground line is dedicated to one sporting discipline. 

The Jubilee Line features 17 cyclists:  Miguel Indurain, Paolo Bettini, Fabian Cancellara, Viatcheslav Ekimov, Leontin Van Moorsel, Jeannie Longo, Connie Carpenter, Bradley Wiggins, Daniel Morelon, Felicia Ballanger, Chris Boardman, Victoria Pendleton, Rebecca Romero, Anna Meares, Paolo Pezzo, Julien Absalon and Chris Hoy.

'The Underground Olympic Legends Map was designed by Alex Trickett and David Brooks,  who say on their design: .....

 "There were heated debates and a few late changes of heart, but we are happy with the result: dozens of nations represented, all 2012 Olympic sports accounted for, and Ali and Phelps, two of the greatest Olympians of all time, guarding the Stratford gateways to the Games."

"These things always divide opinion, so we are happy to discuss (and defend!) any of our choices @alextrickett "

Alex Trickett was a sports journalist and International Editor for the BBC Sport website and David Brooks is a sports historian, journalist and author of "The All-Time World Cup'. from TFL website.

 The map can be purchased for 4.99 (GBP) from the TFL store.
