1 London Transport Museum | Transport museum | Covent Garden Piazza, London WC2E 7BB | London | kid-in-a-toy-box but for buses and tube trains | feels like walking through the inside of an old tube map – i always end up sketching logos instead of people-watching here. |

2 Ferrari Mayfair (H.R. Owen) | Luxury marque showroom | 15 Berkeley Square, London W1J 6EG | London | red leather, soft lighting, Mayfair money energy | i go here when i want main-character-in-a-heist-movie vibes. you stand outside sketching and pretending you’re ‘choosing specs’ instead of waiting for the bus. |

3 Tesla Centre London Park Royal | EV showroom and service | 152 Dukes Road, London W3 0SL | London | sci‑fi rental car office, lots of silent doors opening and closing | came for the chargers, stayed to doodle all the minimalist interiors. somehow feels like an Apple Store that decided it wanted to be a motorway service station. |

4 Revolution Karting Mile End | Outdoor electric kart track | 422-424 Burdett Road, London E3 4AA | London | under railway arches, floodlights, big ‘east london go‑kart anime’ energy | proper ‘this should not be this fast in Zone 2’ feeling. i always leave with helmet hair and a notes app full of overheard post-race arguments. |

5 TeamSport Go Karting Docklands | Indoor multi-level karting | 3 Herringham Road, London SE7 8NJ | London | massive warehouse, long track, river-thames-industrial-core | the track is huge so you properly get into a rhythm – like drawing long continuous lines instead of tiny sketchbook scribbles. also: surprisingly good people-watching in the briefing room. |
|---|
6 TeamSport Go Karting West London (Acton) | Indoor multi-level karting | 20 Allied Way, London W3 0RF | London | tucked behind industrial estates, inside is full Fast & Furious audition | everyone turns up pretending they’re ‘not competitive’ and then spends the whole bus ride home refreshing lap times. track’s tight and quick, good for adrenaline, bad for eyeliner. |
