Earlier today my friend Maria Norton sent me the following message:
Hi Dave,
Hope you’re getting settled into the new place.
Just wondering, have you heard about the
http://www.google.com/help/faq_maps.html}… you will find the ability to create custom Google maps on your website (you must register and get an API key to do this).For other Google maps hacks, see: http://googlemapsmania.blogspot.com/
Take care, and good luck with the training.
I’ve been thinking about training route mapping since I moved to Newtown and started scouting for cycling and running routes. I checked out the Google Maps API and it looks like I can definitely use it to make maps of my training routes for the Bristol-Myers Squibb Tour of Hope Fundraising Ride in Washington DC.
I’ll let you know when I start experimenting with the API. [Thanks Maria!]
