1896 Cycling Map
Someone posted this over in A&S for some reason, but I thought it made sense to post here.
From the Big Map Blog, an 1896 map of cycling roads in California.

I'm going to print this on a plotter at work and make a poster.

If you have access to a big printer / plotter, I just printed the high resolution file on 24x36 and it looks FANTASTIC. It's going in the man cave.
