    Your Veloviewer number is around 98/99 IIRC (Velo sig isn't there anymore). Isn't that enough for you? :D

    bah! so close

    According to your Strava data, you've cycled 49+ miles on 49 different days.

    To reach an Eddington number of 50, you need 1 more rides of 50+ miles.

    42 miles or 67.6 km

    Not bad as it's not 2 years from when I learnt until May :)

    63 (miles), 88 (km) for me, the interesting thing with Veloviewer is the ability to break it down by year,

    2015 23 (miles), 29 (km)
    2014 49 (miles), 62 (km)
    2013 42 (miles), 58 (km)
    2012 36 (miles), 50 (km)

    You'd never guess I love my (often useless) stats

    Can you do that directly, i.e., the number relates distance to days so an Eddington number in km would have to have, e.g., 91km on 91 different days, not 91km on 57 different days, right? Confused...... :confused:

    That's a good point.

    Explorer Score: 66.6 over 3487 tiles.

    Anyone know what this means. :confused: It's located just below the Eddington Score on Veloviewer.

    From the Veloviewer FB page:

    "New addition to the Summary page - the Explorer Score!
    It doesn't matter how fast you go, this score rewards you for regularly getting away from your usual roads/trails and exploring new places.
    For a given period of time the Explorer Score is the number of unique map tiles (256x256 pixel) at zoom level 14 divided by the total distance covered. You can aim to maximise the the score itself or just the total number of tiles covered.
    It can take a second or two to calculate depending on the amount of data you have so it will only be shown once you press the button."

    Dublin/Wicklow/Kildare/Carlow would be regular I guess

    Donegal/Belmullet/Belfast would've been a few others.

    I must get a bit further out of my comfort zone. :)

    I think it means you get about a bit :)

    My Eddington number is 55 miles 74km which I'm quite pleased with.

    Explorer is 97 over 1472, I really need to get out more.
