"Spectators with tickets for Games events in London will receive a Games
travelcard to use on public transport in London on the day of their event.

This will include London Underground (Tube), London Overground rail, DLR,
bus, tram and some national rail services but not the Heathrow, Stansted
or Gatwick Express trains or taxis."

Which very nearly sounds like the Travelcard we all know and love but just
maybe isn't (some national rail services?).

Be that as it may, if I'm coming from an outboundary point (probably
Maidenhead but possibly Castle Cary) I might expect to buy a ticket to
BZ6(?). I've never seen an advance ticket Castle Cary to BZ6 (sorry, I'm
being facetious) but does anyone know if the boundaries and rules
regarding how tickets butt up against one another will work with games
travelcards?
Is there such a thing as a ticket *to* BZ6. AIUI tickets (single and return)
are available with origin a zone boundary (to extend a travelcard to an
outboundary destination), but from outside the zones you would get an
outboundary travelcard.

Then we get into the thorny issue of split tickets when one is a travelcard
(Day or Season).
