18 - Silbury Boulevard, Milton Keynes - Greg Rutherford

Greg Rutherford lead the world rankings in the Long Jump this year but had largely slipped under the radar before delighting the crowd inside the Olympic Stadium with a 8.31m jump to take top spot.  This was Great Britain's 12th Gold of London 2012.























Milton Keynes is a soulless place.  A pointless grid system and everywhere looks the same.  And so many traffic islands !  As you can see I couldn't even be bothered to get out of the car.  Sorry Greg.  There were two yoofs sitting nearby swigging from a bottle in a brown paper bag.  And it was still quite early in the morning.  So we got the photos and moved on sharpish... to Watford !!
