| Map my Ride | Google Maps |
Bikers can use a variety of tools to map their destinations – including www.mapmyride.com and a new bike mapping feature on Google Maps http://maps.google.com/biking. This highly requested feature was recently unveiled at the National Bike Summit and is an outcome of the nationwide movement to create a more bicycle-friendly America. This new feature includes step-by-step bicycling directions; bike trails outlined directly on the map; and a new “Bicycling” layer that indicates bike trails, bike lanes and bike-friendly roads. Bike riders will receive a route that is optimized for cycling, taking advantage of bike trails, bike lanes and bike-friendly streets.
In addition, the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) has a created a Web page to help bikers map their destinations with the Columbus Metro Bike Users Map and links other community area bikeway maps, including the City of Dublin. MORPC also has a RideSolutions to assist cyclists looking to commute to work with a buddy. The site will help match cyclists in the same area commuting to work.
