I have just read and signed the online petition:

"Google Maps 'Bike There' Feature Request"

hosted on the web by PetitionOnline.com, the free online petition
service, at:

http://www.PetitionOnline.com/bikether/

I think it would be a cool addition to Google maps, perhaps you will
too. If you can spare a moment, please take a look, and consider
signing yourself. Seems to me that it would also give a person a good
idea about where to walk too.
Planning routes that assume you are in a vehicle can lead you astray,
but if a bike can use a route, than a pedestrian probably can too.

One more thread and I'm writing a script to fill that with vandalism.

What's wrong with the "avoid highways" check box?

What's wrong with the "avoid highways" check box?

Not much that I can tell.

One thing that some locals wondered about was whether "Bike There" would take the weather into account. They don't plow most of the multi-use paths. They are pretty much impassible in the winter. Maybe Google will have a "Bike There" check box, with a "Yes I've got studded tires" check box. And perhaps a "I'm VC and don't like bike lanes" check box.

Don't forget the "Spiderman" option, which finds the tallest buildings on your route to latch onto.

Will it avoid dirt roads?

Will it avoid dirt roads?

What about those that WANT dirt roads?
