Hi, Just to let you know that as of today this is now back up in it's near to original form. The maps had been missing due to Bing buying out Multimap and Sven had used Multimap API to create the mapping. Following months of work by numerous friends of Sven's it has finally been fully repaired by a wonderful guy called Filipe whom lives in Portugal. Unfortunately for some the OS Mapping is now replaced with Google Maps (which i prefer to be honest as it gives you a bit more live information and it is fairly easy to open up a separate OS map alongside it if need be). Google Maps is obviously free also so it makes sense to use it. The site is a lot faster now and Filipe is currently working on permitted access where it can be edited and added to for future growth.

Anyway i for one am really pleased this is back up as i know how many days on the trails and nights in front of the PC it took for Sven to get it live in the first place. I hope it continues to be of use to riders in the Sussex, Kent and Surrey area's perhaps further afield in the future also.

Special thanks to Sven's mum for driving the repair of the Byway Database and also for permitting access and trusting a bunch of strangers with her son's hard work this past year. You can read about her efforts with getting the Bywaydatabase up and running along with many of Sven's other hobbies (dirtbikes, geocaching, youtube) here https://svengalie.co.uk

Enjoy the trails Smile
