Ridewithgps not working?

I have been using the site ridewithgps for a while now, but lately, while the site still loads, the maps are not showing.

Now this may be because the site is broken, or it may be because I live in China.

I am wondering if others are having the same problems?

This is my commute to work

Can you see it, because I cant.

If i click on your link, i can see the map. The only thing i don't see is a cue sheet but maybe you did not build one. I also have been using the website but so far no problems. You could try e-mailing the guy's and see what they say. up on top on their site where it say's feedback is a e-mail address. May want to try that and see if they can help. Good luck

Ridewithgps uses Google for their maps - so given the PRC/Google flap of late, this may be a Great Firewall issue.

Are you running IE6? I am (no choice, at work), so I can't see your map. If you are, and you have a choice, you'll want to use a better browser...

I am using FF, but can see GoogleMaps, and GoogleEarth.

Hmmm.... I was really enjoying that site. Will fiddle around with my browser settings, maybe some recent changes affected they way it loads.

Thanks

I have similar issues from my work computer occasionally (IE7 - like szehui, no choice), but it always seems to work fine at home (where I run FF3).

I'm in DC, not China, so I'm guessing it's not just a China thing...

I am currently in Malaysia on holiday, and it isnt working here either. Must be something I did in FF.

Try creating a new FireFox profile.

Works fine from Chrome in Southern California. Like the others, try a different browser if you can. You could also create a different account on your PC and check from there. That would eliminate your profile completely and all settings that you may have done.

O, and China has a beef with Google at the moment so they are probably blocking it - read these articles....well....if you can
