Just posted an updated map of all the places, I have cycled to from theBythams.
The dark blue lines are the extra routes, I have added since last updating this map on 05/09/2012.
More cycling maps can be found at www.gordon-valentine.com/zenphoto/cycling/, which also include the End to End cycle maps.
It goes to show just how cold it’s been so far this year. Since it’s the first time in 2013, I have gone out cycling in just Lycra. With nothing else over the top of it! They say that on Sunday the temp will up to 19C. I just hope they are correct. I may even get my sexy legs out!!
Just back in from what is only my second 60+ mile cycle of the year. I made it all the way to Burton on the Wolds (Just 4 miles east of Loughborough). So covered a lot of new roads. I will need to do that route again and maybe next time go to whole way in Loughborough. I also cycled that far, the GPS did not have maps for that area. So very glad, I had a OS map on me!!
I will now leave you with the route map, elevation graph and route statistics.

Toughest Place to be a Fisherman: The Return (BBC 2/HD | 9:00pm to 10:00pm | Sunday 7th April 2013)
Cornish fisherman Andy Giles gave up his state of the art trawler for two weeks to travel to the coast of Sierra Leone, where the fishing is done from a dugout canoe. Now he is returning to see what has happened to a fishing community whose survival was under threat from the illegal trawlers which took their fish, damaged their nets and even sunk their canoes. The transformation Andy finds is extraordinary: since the original programme was broadcast Sierra Leone was given a new fisheries patrol vessel, donated by the Isle of Man. The government and a British NGO have combined to almost eradicate the scourge of illegal fishing, transforming the lives of local fishermen. For Andy it is an emotional return to the village of mud huts and the two cousins with whom he formed such a bond.
