![]() I was a late adopter, as usual, but as soon as I had a GPS tracker, I wanted to use it to make a record of the various places I like to go dirt biking. But it does to me, because I remember when this feature of Google Maps didn’t exist. ![]() Perhaps this doesn’t seem miraculous to you. It’s a Google Map, as provided by Google - but the path I followed as I was dirt biking is projected onto it. You can change to Satellite view, to see the area photographed from above. You can zoom out, to get a better sense of what part of the world all this happened in. You can slide the map around, to view more of the route I took. For the full effect, though, you should look, not at a screenshot of the map, but at the map itself to do so, please click this link to view my route as portrayed by Google Maps (don’t forget to come back here afterwards!). Instead of describing where it was and telling you how the road climbed in switchbacks from the Old Ridge Route to a mountain ridge above the Mojave high desert and parallel to the San Andreas fault, I’ll show you: the start of my route looks like this.
