I had a good one tonight;

Homeward bound from the TL Balham High Road, intersection of Ritherdon Road (just after the Esso garage and Argos) all the way through Tooting, Colliers Wood, Merton right up to the TLs at end Merantum Way by Wicks.

My other good one (last year) was from (A3) Clapham North tube station to the (A24) Waitrose TL on Balaham High Road, at the Bedford Hill Intersection.

Anyone else ???

A proper green wave is when you just keep going full beans and happen to catch TLs when the lights are green, not when you slow down to catch the light.

    I just had a good green wave, with just a couple of freewheelings without having to brake up to ''mature'' red lights.

    Then on the return leg I got a following wind and immediately hit a red that stayed red for at least 2 minutes.

    Still, I reckon I was quids in tonight.
