First I got on Flushing-Main St-bound (7) #1942 departed 10:04, arriving Flushing-Main St at 10:12.

 

Next, I went to Flushing Library to make sign for my racess.

 

Then, at Roosevelt Av/Main St, I took 11:15am N20 Roslyn-Mineola Av left 4 minutes late at 11:19, suppose to arrive Great Neck Station at 11:44, but arrive 7 minutes late at 11:51.

Next, I took N20 Flushing #1535 depart 11:59, arrive Roosevelt Av/Bowne St @ 12:27.

 

Thanks to replace B/O, I made to 12:25 Co-Op City-bound Q50 #8570 departed 12 minutes late at 12:37, arrive Pelham Bay Park (6) at 13:04.

 

Next, I got on 13:20 W45 Eastchester #642 departed 1 minute late at 13:21, arrive New Rochelle Transit Center at 13:51, 3 minutes early.

 

Next, I got on 14:10 W42 ##695 233rd St Subway departed on time, suppose to arrive White Plains Rd/233rd St @ 14:48, but arrive 5 minutes late at 14:53.

 

Next, I got on Flatbush-bound (2) #6855 departed 14:58, arrive Pelham Parkway @ 15:05.

 

Soon as I exit at Pelham Parkway Station, Inwood-bound Bx12SBS #1232 was waiting for green light, so I made mad rush to Bx12SBS Machine, insert my MetroCard, then get a receipt, and took quick pic and hop on which departed Pelham Parkway/White Plains Rd @ 15:09, and arrived Fordham Rd/Jerome Av @ 15:25.

 

Next, I got on Utica-bound (4) #7100 departed Fordham Rd @ 15:29, arrive Bowling Green @ 16:15.

 

Next, I got on Guy V. Molinari on 16:20 departed Whitehall Ferry Terminal five minutes late at 16:25, arrive St. George at 16:45, 10 minutes late 16:35.

 

Next, I got on Grand City-bound S81 #3999 departed St. George Taxi Stand at 16:51, arrive Bay St/Water St @ 16:57.

 

Next, I walk to Stapleton Station.

As I was waiting for SIR-bound for St. George schedule to arrive 17:16 near Prospect Street, I spotted there was man with lots of shopping bags in cart, so I decided to help him carry shopping cart together and he said, "Thank you."

 

After I took video SIR Express, my train #464 came and departed 17:18, arrive St. George @ 17:21 ontime.

 

Next, after I took pic or relocated buses, I miss the 17:30 ferry, and nice DOT K-9 Unit had friendly dog which let me touch the dog.

Since I miss it, I went get more pic, including College and Parking Shuttles, and perfect timing, but bad news was Andrew J. Barberi departed 17:47, 2 minutes late and arrive Whitehall Ferry Terminal safety @ 18:11.

 

Next, I made mad rush to Bowling Green Station, then caught Utica Av-bound (4) #7095 departed 18:18, arrive Borough Hall @ 18:22.

 

Next, I took Downtown Brooklyn-bound B103 #3599 departed Joralemon/Court Sts @ 18:25, arrive Court/Montague Sts at 18:27.

 

Next, I reenter via elevator and got on rear car of Forest Hill-bound (R) #5778 departed Court St @ 18:33, arrive Whitehall St @ 18:37.

 

Next, I rush to M15 +SBS Station at South Ferry, push start, insert MetroCard, then got receipt, then boarded 126th St-bound M15 SBS #1262 after greeting my friend, supervisior, and bus departed 18:42.

There was newcomer who did not know about changing on M15.

I got off at 1st Av/43rd St at 19:11.

After I got off, B/O ask me to teach one of lady how to use SBS Machine, then usher her through middle door after she got receipt.

Then, I walk to 42nd St, even thought there is no fare inspectors, I like to show to police at UN.

 

Then, I got on West Side Pier-bound M50 #5237 departed 1st Av/42nd St @ 19:19, arrive 49th St/2nd Av @ 19:23.

 

Then, I got on South Ferry-bound M15 SBS #1243 departed 2nd Av/50th St @ 19:27, arrive 2nd Av/42nd St @ 19:32.

As I took few minutes break from my bus race, I helped little and then I rush to Grand Central and got on Flushing-bound <7> #1906 departed 20:05, arrive Junction Blvd at 20:23.

THE END.

Hey. Nice trip! I have done a trip sort of like this quite a few times, except I don't use trains. I do 28 buses a trip and do a loop (Bklyn, SI, Bklyn, Queens, Manhattan, Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn) and it usuallky takes 11 hours or so. If you want, I can send you my list of one of them. They're in pdf formart. If you wanna see, pm me your email.
