ELEPHANT MAKES RARE APPEARANCE IN WHITLEY BAY

About this creation

"ELEPHANT MAKES RARE APPEARANCE IN WHITLEY BAY" is a GPS art route drawn in North Tyneside, United Kingdom that takes the shape of an animal. The neighbourhood suits this kind of shape: the street layout gives the routing algorithm enough room to honour the outline without cutting corners.

The route covers 5.0 km, roughly 15 min at an easy cycling pace, which makes it a short ride. Every turn follows real roads from OpenStreetMap: Draw My Loop's snapping algorithm keeps the outline on the actual street network.

Grab the GPX file, push it to a watch via Strava or Garmin Connect, and head out. Once the activity is recorded, the drawing shows up on the map automatically. You can also fork this route from the map and adapt it to your own neighbourhood before exporting.
