Hi all,
There's a segment on my regular commute (College Road, Sydenham Hill for those that know it) that I set my PB on some years ago. I'd be interested in using my Strava data to compare my (many) attempts and see where I might focus to try to get close to PB again. (I'm not particularly interested in comparing with other people, I'm aware I'm pretty slow!) I've taken a look at VV but , without a Strava sub, I can't see all the functionality (e.g. Segments-->History). Can I do what I'm describing, and is it best done via VV or Strava itself? Thanks!

I got bored with Fineshade mtb centre and decided to head south to Stanwick lakes, knowing it might bag me a few tiles, it got me 3 and added 16 to my max cluster.
Grabbed some tiles yesterday at Bike Park Wales. Properly this time, rather than e-MTB (although ironically the uplift is surely easier!).
But I got a decent climb in when I went out of the park boundaries to grab 3 bonus tiles.
The next step in this area will be a road circuit to take a cluster of 1 to 22.

Looks like tiles (in their original context) may soon be an anachronism! Won't stop anyone hunting them, of course, but an interesting development:

Having tried to get this square from the south west sometime last year and getting stopped by HS2 completing closing the bridleway I copied @Norry1 and attempted it from the north east.
a mile down a private road, started off okay, a hardcore road, bit bumpy a few holes but nothing serious enough to slow you down, went by a farm and hit mud, by the looks of it, the side of the road was were the farmer was keeping his manure pile, it was bloody massive. Had to walk probably 30 or 40 foot as it was too muddy to ride through, both myself and the bike got absolutely filthy, but I got it. 100 mile ride for 1 square, i good have done it in around 74-75, but you have to extend it to a 100 when that close
