Hey everybody, today I rode the 645 from Stop 36 Neath Avenue to Marion, then the 300 clockwise from Marion to Harbour Town. The 645 was #1529 2011 Scania K230UB from Morphettville. The 300 was #1754 2000 MAN NL202 CNG from Morphettville :D

Been a while since you posted! I was wondering how the bus riding is going? I assume you are a student so you hopefully have had a good few weeks to catch as many routes as possible.

Sorry about not getting back to everyone recently. I’ve been kinda busy but I have managed to catch a fair few routes around the place. Here’s a pretty full list so far: 719,720,733,734,T722,722F,M44,W90,645,646,861,100,300 that was especially difficult and so far that’s about it. I’ll get back to you all soon after a few more are completed. :D

Caught the 984 school bus route today from Seaview High to Marino (Newland Ave). It was #1275 and also noticed it was rear-door boarding equipped.

Thought I'd casually bring this thread back and tell everyone I made it through approximately 40% of all possible routes before officially giving up. I don't know what was going through my head when I thought of this lol. Took me approx. 6 months

Did you happen to get to any hills routes?

I managed to finish almost all of the hills routes bar short-runnings. So I'd say yes I did but not to the point where I can say I completed the hills area.

Wow, great job. So I'm guessing you didn't get around to the 850?

Next challenge. Repeat what you did without catching any jackpot CB80s or newer (IE 1973 and onwards).

Certainly sounds like an interesting idea! I'd love to photograph every bus route in Adelaide, thats a bit of a long term goal, however with the new network inbound I'd say it'd be easier to photograph/ride each route.
