Biking Directions Come to Google Maps
This is totally cool - but slightly useless due to lack of mobile support.
I don't know about you, but my smart phone changed how I bike to the point where I almost can't remember what it was like to travel with a rear trunk full of city maps, county maps, local maps ... oh wait, now I remember.
It sucked.
I rode out to somewhere, somewhere, Long Island once and had so many maps with me that I caused traffic accidents from all of the motorist laughing at me as I stood on street corners trying to figure out where I was.
Here's hoping for a mobile option soon.

Secondhand, steel framed, mid 80's LeMans RS Centurion in bumblebee black and yellow. I recently put baby blue Michelin tires on it and now I look like a colorblind mess - but they make me feel zippy.
