Since many, perhaps most, of the submissions now seem to be following a couple of different sequences than the primary one, and because many of the higher numbers have been skipped over altogether anyway, I wonder if it's time to restructure how this challenge advances?

I don't know, it's up to the original poster. Depends if he wants to go by larger or more frequent groups of numbers. I don't think too many of us have organized much past 1000; only Texas, Louisiana, and Kentucky remain as states, and a few odd places here and there. Even then, Louisiana drops out at around 1280 and resumes at 3000.

I think I run out of known entries around 1380 to 1395; found that 1291 which temporarily ended my streak.

Wow, I didn't know that anywhere in Europe posted standalone route markers, as is common in much of North America. Really cool.

Iceland uses separate signs for the route markers, but maybe they're an exception? (I only drove in Latvia and Iceland, so I can't say I'm too familiar with this).

Speaking of Iceland, here's some more routes to share:

Route 1 near Selfoss


Route 41 near Reykjanesbær


Route 261 near Hvolsvöllur
