I have a very cheap advance ticket from London Victoria to Hove, but have a bicycle and am in North London. I dont want to cycle through Central London to Victoria so plan to take my bike on aThameslink train off peak from Finsbury park to east Croydon using contactless and pick up my Hove train from there. If I touch out and go through the barrier I don't suppose the barrier will let me back in at East Croydon as my ticket is from Victoria. Can I touch out and not go through the barrier or is there an issue with this?
Also, I I know technically it is starting a journey short on an advance ticket but I can't imagine anyone would be fussed about thst
