More fun with Google Maps
Found this today on Lifehacker:
It’s a great hack for Google Maps: the Google Pedometer. But it’s not just for walking. It works for bike rides, too. For instance, here’s last Saturday’s ride to the Encino Velodrome as plotted on the map: see the route
Note that the final calculated mileage of 60.9 agrees pretty well with the 61.<mumble> measured by my bike computer.
Now, if only this could be combined with Bike Metro’s route service to give elevation data, it would be perfect.
