There are still a couple of squares between Newark and Lincoln that I need to get.

Tell me where they are and I'll put em in....was tempted to aim for Fulbeck or the Giant concept store

I need the Giant store square, I also need four squares just south of Lincoln near the RAF station. (Waddington?)

Will do a screenshot when I'm on the computer

 

[Supersuperleeds]

These are the squares I need that way

Not been on the bike for ages - man flu plus extras.............
Local pootle today for a single missing square pushed me up from 15 by 15 to 17 by 17.

Today's ride saw me get the last two squares to complete all Leicestershire squares

The "route" above covers all the squares the Leicestershire boundary goes through. Might try Rutland next as it is a bit smalller.

Impressive!!

My fortnight's riding in Cornwall added 99 squares to my total now 2918 . Didn't alter my max cluster in Leicester . Being based on the coast certainly limits your options riden the same area for 3 years now and nearest squares that are rideable are 15 miles away . Few little bits of land on the coast missing as there no roads in then might have to breakout the pedallo

Yeah, I find that annoying. In my case there's a stretch of Mersey shoreline that has a cycleable path - but earlier this year they put up big barriers claiming the shoreline is crumbling and dangerous, and I hadn't ridden it when I could (and last time I was nearby I hadn't joined Veloviewer and had no thought of squares). I'll need to explore access a bit more closely - and I might even have to try hiring a fatbike and having a go along the sand/mud at low tide But yes, I suppose a bike pedalo counts

Indeed, human power is what counts. Quite a few difficult tiles have been scored by Dutch Velo Viewer enthousiasts at the end of winter, when quie a lot of lakes were frozen and they could cross them on skates.

The key question is whether you've worked out a few routes to connect Cornwall to your max cluster.....

Cycle Travel gives Leicester to Holywell as 331 miles, do it there and back in five days.

I have routes but no enthusiasm need to connect my clusters in Cornwall ,Leicester ,Bridlington and Loch Ness ,I have a bit of work to do

I'm planning to start cycling in Thailand in the near future - it's where my dear wife of 30+ years is from. Connecting that up to Lancashire and Cheshire might be tricky.
