@Norry1 ,Looks like there are roads in off the B4086 , industrial estate possible looks easy unless there private gated roads

Has anyone bagged this tile? If so, any tips?

I think there is a military area which makes it difficult. Have cycled there near edgehill. On my planner I would go on the small lane connecting Radway to the A422, then push bike up footpath that takes you to edge of the military complex (or use MTB)

@Norry1 ,that makes it tricky , I think I ride by and see if I'm was prepared to gamble a quick in and out trip the 2nd entrance from Kniveton looks like about 400m to an island and out . There looks like a track from the south that enters the tile but not sure if it's ridable or private

Looks like you can reach the top left of the square, via the permissive path here:

The permissive path stops just short of the tile but from the Strava heatmap it looks like people have snook over the border from it:

I was planning on going up the bridleway from Westcote Farm. The images that I found on Geograph looked OK when it was dry:

Sorry for the rather quiet post last night. A journey up to London, naturally with tiling aspirations.

My plan is probably pretty clear at this point!

Then an attempt was made to balance East London (just a radial for future tiling use), but I really fancied trying out the Dartford shuttle anyway.

I may have a go at the NW corner route today. I passed through Little Kineton yesterday and was tempted to divert onto this route - but I was in the middle of a 3 x 15 min Threshold effort workout so I gave it a swerve

My Gravel bike is still in the shop (I got back too late to collect it) but I noticed a road route avoiding the A16 to a tile up near Crowland which was stopping my Max Square increasing (I just need to grab the corresponding tile at the other end of my 20x20 grid with the gravel bike to actually expand it. I also noted an easy tile to grab without being on the A47 for long (I actually stayed on it longer than I planned). So I'm now at:

Silly ride to get 22 tiles in the Black Country.

Square increased from 12x12 to 15x15
Cluster increased from 278 to 300

Extended my commute again and got myself another 10 tiles.

Looks like I left a hole at Newgate Street! To get that I'd have to go on the gravel bike and I'm not sure if 30miles round is too much for after work at a slower speed 🤔
