Google Maps Gets Bike-Friendly - AppScout

Just in time for the changing of the seasons, Google is rolling out bike directions for Google maps.

In addition to walking, car, and public transit, users can now find the best way to get from point A to point B on two wheels. The directions utilize "bike friendly" roads and attempt to avoid biking obstacles like steep hills.

A partnership with Rail-to-Trails Conservancy also brings more than 12,000 miles of bike trails to Google Maps. Lines on the map are divided into three varieties: bike-only trails, roads with dedicated bike lines, and "bike-friendly" roads without dedicated lanes.
