Re: Advice for 58 mi Rail to Trail to Falls

>How hilly would that be?

Hi folks, I wanted to share a pretty cool web-site that lets you map out
routes. It combines a route editor over a google-map with topo data to
generate an elevation profile of your ride. You can build your own
"lbrary" of routes and share with others. Here's a link to one of my
local dutchess county rides ...
http://www.runstoppable.com/routeoverview.php5?route_id=1050044340 From
here you can navigate the site and play around with it.

Ok, it's meant for runners, but a route is a route. Routes are derived
from any number of way-points you may click on the map, (piece-wise
linear). this means you approximate the route. It'd be better if it
could recognize the roads and even generate cue-sheets. But, it's still
pretty slick anyway.

Tom
