Increased the max square not by 1, but by 2 today. 49 strategically placed new squares around Derby and Notingham took it to 47x47.

It's bloody lumpy around Ilkeston

A trip up to the wind farm today took mine to 15x15.

and I now don’t even live inside my max square - it’s a 4 mile trip to meet the closest edge!

 

[Supersuperleeds]

My nearest new square is now a 52 mile round trip,

I’ve got several squares that are only about 10 miles away. But I’d need a mountain bike - it’s over moorland. I’m looking at the tracks up to the wind farm.

I’ve also got a square that’s about a mile away - but that one would need a Pedalo :-)


The closest square that I can get to on a “normal” bike is a 70k round trip.

Agreed!!! Good riding country though.

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Another 11 squares and the max cluster up another 31.

@13 rider I had to open the ride to get one of the squares, you might want to double check yours.

13 tiles for me max cluster up by 23 . Tiles 3446 max cluster 1650 . I have a missing surrounded square at mile oak but the road we travelled on didn't go in it . Near more that way so no issue

A trip to Glasgow today, and picked up a few squares to the south and west of the city, joining together 2 “clusters”. So 14 new squares, but max cluster grown by 40.

I got the train home. Is that cheating? :-)

Train, cheating? I hope not, I've done several train journeys

Today's riding pulled my max cluster over the 2,000 mark. Now 2026

 

[13 rider]

Same ride as @tallliman gave me 30 new squares total now 3476 max cluster up by 36 to 1686

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Same ride as @tallliman and @13 rider saw me get 29 more squares with the cluster up 35 to 3,214.

 

[13 rider]

An imperial ton targeting some little clusters of squares gave me 17 squares but jumped my max cluster by 36 . Total squares 3493 max cluster 1722 . Poor @Supersuperleeds came with me and didn't get any new squares

 

[bruce1530]

ten new squares for me today. I’ve got one annoying square that I don’t see a way to get to - in a former MOD site, fence all round, signs saying :Guard Dogs”. I’m sure I could get there quite easily on foot, but that’s cheating.

There’s construction going on at one part of the site. The outside gate was closed today, but I reckon if I rolled up there one working day, went through the main gate and car park and up to the site hut, I’d be far enough in!

Walking is fine - they'll be plenty of occasions where someone has had to get off their bike to walk a few metres to 'claim' a square.

Walks involving no cycling are also fine (in fact anything human powered - canoeing etc is). Though I'd draw the line at walks less than a mile in length - so no driving to a square, hopping out and just switching the GPS on and getting back in to the car and driving off for me.
