OSM also has good ties with the bicycling community and goes through great lengths to make a global bike map. So why not drop google in favor of OSM? Why use Google for the background map? We can’t update Google (well, not without them claiming ownership on what we do for them) like we can OpenStreetMap.org.

Any chance there might ever be a GPX export option (so a user could import a route onto a GPS device that supports GPX format). bycycle.org is a fantastic site, great idea.

Hopefully, one of these will take off, though without a standardized data model this will be rather difficult to achieve." Can you elaborate? Who? What? When? Where? Hello Wyatt,

Can you elaborate? Who? What? When? Where?

Also, please keep in mind that byCycle does <strong>not</strong> use Google's address lookup capabilities. Google has put tons of money and effort into their address lookup; byCycle has never had such resources. Also, if you enter just 6077 Lakeview, an address is found. Not sure if it's the one you're looking for, though. @Doug 6/11
