  • Since I started this there have been a number of advancements in aids for planning, tracking etc this kind of thing. As I don't plan any rides, I find strava maps is excellent for quick checks when out and about. I saw you can set heat maps by date so looked what mine is for the past 4 years, which is mostly after having completed inside north/South circular. Can see how much on the western half outside the circular, but also nodes around Elizabeth line out NE and SE which I started using the past few months. On track to get up to 55% of all of Greater London this year.

  • Wow, this is wild.

    I only discovered Wandrer this year and have only been out riding specifically to cover new roads the past month or so.

    One thing that I’ve found that’s a bit frustrating is that sometimes I’ll ride a path or a road and a little bit of it will remain red on the Big Map meaning I have to go back to the area again. Does anyone have any hints or tips to avoid this?

    I’m 42% of Edinburgh. I’d like to beat the person at the top of the leaderboard who’s at 55%.

    God, not another "thing".

    I've seen it on Strava - is it a Strava plugin or something?

  • Now, why am I not surprised that you've joined the obsessives? :)

  • Sorry, don't know how to fix that. It might involve editing OpenStreetMap? There's plenty of chat about this kind of thing in the Wandrer strava club. I can't be bothered with the faff of perfection. I just try ride everything possible. Lots of my "off road" stuff doesn't register because it's not on OSM, but those can be some of the most fun.
    Good luck getting to No. 1, it sounds like it's an achievable goal. Looks like I'll always be No. 2 in London!
