When you discover that there are approximately 1000 pieces of metal dotted around the country, along predefined routes perfect for cycling, you would want to go collect them all, wouldn't you? Just me then?
Thanks to a generous donation from the Royal Bank of Scotland, marking the turn of a new Millenium, These waymarkers can still be found along popular cycling roads that make up the National cycle network. Sustrans has kindly mapped their locations. So I have challenged myself to visit as many of these as possible.
My google map shows the mileposts I have visited so far (click on the red bikes, and you can see the photos) and all the ones I have yet to visit (all the other colours)
The Sustrans interactive map shows lots of extra detail about each one.
If you would rather take a look at the video to see the ones I've visited so far, click below -
