cane my 600 Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Hi, Apologies if some of you have already seen a post about this on the Fazer forum? Some friends of mine have built a site that allows people to enter and review their favourite biking roads in the UK and Europe and I am helping them try to make it a but known. It is a pretty cool site, it allows you to view and generate maps of routes as well as review existing routes. The idea is that it will become a knowledge base for Brit and European Bikers to use for ride outs and trips. The service is offered free and there is no catch, it is run by bike enthusiasts who are pretty well travelled and wanted to offer a useful service to others. Obviously the more people that sign up and add their own routes the better the site will become, it has been running for about a week and half so far and there are about 100 routes added. Take a look if it interests you. http://www.bestbikingroads.com Cheers, David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Alex Posted January 15, 2005 Admin Share Posted January 15, 2005 It was originally done, but its hard enough to get some users to post at all, let alone route plans etc so we got rid of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavin Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 It was originally done, but its hard enough to get some users to post at all, let alone route plans etc so we got rid of it well theyve done it, piece of piss adding a route to that site, its all drop down lists and it finds the maps for you. took me less than 5 mins to add one.

cane my 600 Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 Thanks for the support guys, glad you like the site. YamaHead, it wouldn't be very difficult to extend the functionailty of the site to include the US, so watch this space, at the moment it is a question of resource, so the more people that enter routes/support the site, the better it will become. Thanks for helping. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
