Welcome to RideEveryTile!

Ride Every Tile is the reference site for cyclists who want to ride 'everywhere'.

What is cycle tiling?

Strava tiles, also called VeloViewer tiles or simply "cycling tiles", are a division of the world into a grid of squares of various different sizes. The goal of Riding Every Tile is try to visit as many of these tiles as you can, using only human power. Typically, "tilers" ride their bike to get a tile, but some tiles are difficult - perhaps up a mountain or on a lake - you may need to walk, climb, swim or kayak to those. Read more about the history of tiling.

See the leaderboards

Ride Every Tile tracks visits to tiles of various sizes. The original tiles, popularised by VeloViewer and later Statshunters and Squadrats, we call zoom level 14 tiles. These are about a mile square, and there are 16,384x16,384 of these covering the globe. Squadrats introduced smaller tiles called "squadratinhos" - 64 of these fit into each original tile. We call these zoom level 17. Ride Every Tile has a leaderboard from zoom level 0 - one tile for the whole world down to level 17.
