map out your ride
Cool site, for mapping out or planning your ride.
The local bike club has been testing it and comparing data.
Their biggest concer is how accurate their climb data was. Mileage seems to be spot on, altitude is very very close

Very easy to use, no learning curve at all.
Here is the most recent sample test that was done by one of our members:
I just rode a 60 mile loop (61.5, to be precise) that I mapped on the site last night. I recorded 61.7 miles. It predicted 2665 feet, and I recorded 2719 using my VDO MC 1.0+, which has proved to be a pretty accurate altimeter. I have not used similar sites before, but this one is very cool, easy to use, and from what I can tell, very accurate.
Here is an example of the maps and directions it creates

That is the route for the 70.3 bike portion of the Vineman
Oh yeah and it's free too.

The first time you do something - It's going to be a personal record!
