Without any doubt we can say that Google Maps is one of the best available maps services. Unfortunately, the suggested routes are aimed at car users and not at bike users. I often want to use Google Maps to find some directions to go somewhere. Unfortunately, I used a bike in most my commuting within the city (mainly Copenhagen in my case) and Google Maps provides routes that are optimized for car users. In other words, most of the directions I get from Google Maps are useless for my purpose. I would love to see that Google builds in an algorithm that can provide me with a bike route if I like.
