> I've seen some of the threads asking about being able to make routes

> So, to the Google Maps teams - "hello!", and "if you can spare some
> time, we'd love to see this feature!".  :)

> First, thanks for all who have posted in this group, pointing to
> byCycle.org and other mapping efforts. As I looked around the net I
> started to realize how widespread support was for this feature. There
> are groups and individuals all over the world that want a quick and
> easy way to map their bike routes. There are so many things that so
> many people love about it that it seems like it almost certainly is a
> good idea, and one worth accomplishing.

> To that end, we put together an online petition to ask Google and the
> Google Maps team to have a look at implementing this feature. We would
> love it if you would consider signing the petition.

> http://www.petitiononline.com/bikether/petition.html

> We also put together a companion website to help keep everyone
> informed, to explore ideas, etc.

> http://googlemapsbikethere.org/

> I have a strong feeling that there are tens of thousands, if not
> millions, of us who would very much like to see this feature added to
> Google Maps, but there is no combined/directed expression of support
> being shown - it's just so many people's voices dispersed all over the
> globe. The petition hopes to bring us all together - virtually - to
> help show Google and the Google Maps team that we think this feature
> would be a tremendous benefit to each of us personally, and to society
> as a whole.

> Thank you very much for your help in signing and spreading the word!
