I like messing around with maps. I’m one of the few in my family that “gets” them. Recently, I’ve been putting the MapMyRide app on the iPhone through it’s paces. It works pretty well most of the time and it’s fun to replay your ride afterwards. I do like to keep track of the distance I put on equipment like chains, so it’s a good tool to use when you don’t have a cyclocomputer. There are also lots of maps you can pick that other uses have uploaded. I’ve used some routes in my neighbourhood that are great rides. Fun stuff!

That’s a pretty cool app – even if it does mean the Illuminati get to monitor your movements 🙂
You got up to some pretty good speeds there too.
