posted almost 2 years ago | Report

I love the latest addition to Google Maps.

I certainly hope this will not end nefariously, but here's Google's suggested route for my work commute.

  • I can see how that would be super useful in big cities that have a lot of hone way streets! Have you tried it yet?

  • I <3 Google. I tried it out for a few destinations here in Virginia Beach and it routed pretty darn close to the ways I would've chosen to go. Very good stuff.

  • I wish they had more trails. They have some really short ones in my area, but not the nice, longer ones... to be honest, I don't want to use it for biking but for planning running routes...

  • Jason, that's an interesting idea. I didn't even think of the possibility of using the bike routes for running.

  • This is SO cool. Thanks for sharing it. It's awesome that they suggest a mix of paved bike paths and roads. How neat.

  • No Google love for Canadian bike riders. We only get walking and transit options.
