Cool Bike Map Site

I’ve played around with different websites to find one that works best for mapping out bike rides. Google Maps itself is woeful for this purpose. You can’t hit a point on a road and have it move from A to B without going in a straight line. Fortunately, there are some sites that have this function built in (using Google Maps as the backbone).

The best one I’ve found so far is www.bikemap.net. Below is an example of my last ride. Compare this to the Google Map version a couple of posts down. One cool feature is the km/mile markers and the elevation chart.
