We'll certainly be doing more round Cambridgeshire in the coming months. 
A group of us has been collectively plugging away at Wisbech and NE 
Cambs and the Norfolk/Cambs border over the winter(*), and once that's 
done we will be moving further west.

We have a problem in Cambridgeshire now, that the big places are all 
done, and the smaller places are quote inaccessible.

One exception is Whittlesea near Peterborough, which has a station. At 
16,000 people three or four of use will easily do this ion a day. Three 
or four is the typical numbers we've been getting though!

There's then a lot of smaller villages west of the A1 and Peterbnorough 
which need doing. I have an idea of doing a kind of "drag and drop" 
mapping party using a minibus to move people between villages with their 
bikes over a weekend.

everyone about shortly.
