Hi All,
I'm new to all this. As the football season is over I decided to take up cycling to keep up my fitness. I have become totally addicted to it now, find it really rewarding. I love the distance I can cover on my road bike and I plan to explore lots of new areas.
Whats the best way to map out my routes? This is important to me as i'm a bit of a stat/geography geek and I like to review my work. Currently I am using Google Maps to draw my routes - link http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?hl...d=205563434876269700957.0004a092b316bf58834a8
It looks ok but its going to get really congested soon. Is there a website that is better for this sort of thing? I also find it really difficult to draw a route exactly where its intended using the "draw a line along a road" feature, especially any routes overlap. Is that just me?
Also if anyone is from the area it would be great to be recommended some interesting routes or places to visit - I plan to do 100mile routes by the end of the summer!
Good luck to me.
