Lincolnshire area GPS routes & maps

[Andy B]

A thread for all those Lincolnshire area riders who have a GPS device/mobile phone with a sportstracker app so that we can have a resource with all of our routes in

Here's today's ride based in Scunthorpe

Nice idea Andy.

I don't have a GPS logger, but here is one of mine South of Lincoln.

I'm not sure if these can be downloaded as a GPS type file.

Mobiles with sportstracker apps, dedicated GPS devices, even plotted routes on Google maps...

Any routes/formats are welcome and useful

If they can be exported to a device even better.

He are a few routes that I know of in the Brigg/Caistor area. It will be interesting to see what other gps tracks people use in (North) Lincolnshire area as there are not too many routes that I know of especially without racking up the miles of tarmac to link up trails!

Anyway here are a few routes that I frequent:

Broughton Woods/Alkborough:

I think you'll find you've just volunteered yourself for organising the next south bank ride there tag33

Some interesting looking routes, what % of those are off/on road?

Couple more just added.

Hibaldstow out to Kirmington:

Swallow/Wold Newton Loop:
http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=1247124

Some interesting looking routes, what % of those are off/on road?

Most are between 1/2 off road and 2/3rd off road - offroad in the case of Lincolnshire being generally bridleways & farmers tracks so don't expect any red route trail centre stuff
You can make it closer to the 2/3rds off road if you miss out the 'commute' I do from Hibaldstow on most of the routes. The road parts are generally only very minor roads (that I would class as almost offroad riding that you need a mountain bike for as they are in such bad condition!)

Blimey is the trail situation that bad this side of the river

I'm slowly discovering routes around the south of Lincoln, so all being well I can start linking a few together to create a nice route for a smaller group event next year.

As expected they're all pretty flat, with just the one short sharp climb up the cliff.

My Sunday solo ride looping around Branston (Pickle's home village)

Quite a nice route, with about 50/50 road/off road.
