Innertube Map Postcode Cycle Challenge
June 15, 2011 by Emily Dodd 
On Sunday 12th June over 500 people took part in the Edinburgh Innertube Map Postcode Challenge. The 'treasure hunt on wheels' helped to publicise the fantastic network of cycle paths we have on our doorstep, many of the routes start right here in Leith.
The Innertube Map is a London underground style map of the Edinburgh bike tracks with colour coded lines and stops. The map is part of an interactive website, and a team of Innertube Map Ambassadors are populating the map with videos, audio and stories generated by their smart phones and smart thinking. Members of the public can submit stories too, find out how here.
I joined the challenge, met some great people at the stops and picked up a few prizes on the way. Here are photos of the people I met (click on the blue links to see bigger versions) and the story of my journey:
UPDATE: Now it's all over, we can reveal stop locations to you via Andy Catlin's wheely good google map of the postcode challenge.
