Not sure today was the ideal day to go out on a research ride to freshen up cycle.travel’s Lon Las Cymru guide, but hey. Amazingly there are some puddles on the Old Coach Road section which are _still_ wet…

🎉 One million routes! The 1,000,000th route was saved on cycle.travel today – this lovely journey along the River Loire. Today also saw May 2026 tick over to be the busiest month on the site yet (4 days still to go!). Fittingly it was on this exact same stretch I snapped this road sign in 2019… 🚴‍♀️🚴🚴‍♂️

If you go down to the woods today… you’ll see some woods. A host of improvements to our cycle-focused cartography includes woodlands, path names and (rolling out over the next week) more placenames at small scales, even in rural areas. cycle.travel/map
