Well... Look at that, google maps have added in an option to map a route with a bike route. I just mapped the route between my house and my work and it is the route I figured out was the best way to go. It even has the walking bridge over highway 100. Impressive.

They had bike directions in beta for a while, but it's pretty cool that they have actual bike paths now.

We've had Cyclopath available for a while, I think it's still better than what I've been seeing from Google. Earlier today someone posted a map from Google that had them biking down Hwy 55. Um, no thanks.

Which part of 55? There is a bike path along 55 in Minneapolis.

Hmm... it looks like they don't have that one bike path that follows the light rail in their system. Or if they do they have it as if it is Hiawatha. That is just bad data more than google maps.
