---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mike Collinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, Aug 27, 2008 at 1:44 PM Subject: [OSM-talk] Any cyclists interested in a Grand European Sweden-to-Marathon Mapping Relay? To: OSM Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is just for fun but might also raise some useful publicity as quirky stunt. Would any cyclist be interested in joining me in a "mapping relay"? My legs are getting too tired trying to map national and regional cycle ways by myself. The idea is that we each ride and map a segment and then pass on a baton, perhaps a GPS device, to the next person or group. It could take place continuously or over a period of weeks as suits you/us, but you must greet the hand-off riders in person. You will probably want to ride around your own region but there is nothing to stop you joining other segments if you have a sleeping bag, I'll be happy to put folks up at my house for my segment. Here are the basic ideas, modifications and suggestions welcome: - Start: Stockholm, or if there is good interest in Sweden, from the Arctic Circle - Finish: Ideally Marathon in Greece. Lacking Balkan riders, perhaps Rome or Brindisi in Italy. - When: If continuous, some time in warmer 2009 weather. Otherwise, we can start as soon as the Swedish segments are organised. - Possible route: Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Holland (land of the Bicycle!), Germany, Switzerland/Austria, Hungary, Serbia, F.Y.R.O.M, Greece - Route variations: Swing through Belgium and France? Adriatic coast: Slovenia, Croatia ....? Have feeder relay coming from UK?? - Length of segment: Entirely up to you as long as you can connect with someone else. - Segment Route: Ideally along unmapped national or regional cycle routes but the exact segment route is up to the local riders. The objective is fun. - All GPX tracks to be uploaded and tagged. All new routes to be mapped. - Does not have to be bicycle. Foot, roller-blade, kayak ... could be added if there is interest.
