Updates to the Maps Page

March 22, 2010

I just updated the Maps Page, so I thought I’d do a quick blog post to let everyone know.

Here’s what is new:

1) I updated the Bikelanes Map to make it as current as possible. If you know of a bikelane that seems to be missing from the map, please let me know in the comments below

2) I added a link to Michael Holloway’s excellent and popular Toronto/GTA Bicycle Route Mapping Wiki blog – which compiles user-submitted cycling routes around Toronto

3) I added a “RideTheCity” page with an embedded version of RideTheCity’s Toronto page.  The RideTheCity mapping function isn’t the best (some routes are a little wonky), but it’s pretty good and there are plans for improvement)

If you have ideas for more Maps for BikingToronto, let us know!

Updates to the Toronto BikeShop Map

January 17, 2010

Just a quick post to let you know I just updated the Toronto BikeShop Map.

I made the BikeShop Map 4 years ago because whenever I was in a part of the city I wasn’t very familiar with, I never knew if I was near a bikeshop. It’s easy enough to google “Toronto Bikeshops” and see what pops up… but a comprehensive online map did not exist.

To my knowledge, it is still the only map with plots this info, for you, the Toronto cyclist. :)

Here are the updates I just made:

If you see any mistakes or omissions, let me know in the comments below, and we’ll get those fixed up!
