Bike Routes on Google Map
Posted by carolyn in Davis Real Estate Market,Home Buying on November 09th, 2011
Davis is known for being a very bicycle friendly community and it is easy to travel from one part of town to another by bike. Although it isn’t a totally new feature, you can now plan a bike route using google maps. For example a trip from downtown Davis to downtown Dixon is 11.5 miles and it is estimated to take about 56 minutes. Of course if you are a speedy rider it would likely take less time but 12 miles an hour is a pretty reasonable rate. For casual riders like myself this is a good tool to estimate how long a bike ride is likely to take – I’m more a ride around town kind of cyclist these days.

Once you have your start and end point, you can always move the blue line to different streets/roads to create a different route. There is also often several options just like with driving directions. Since this is Davis – I would be happy to arrange a home tour by bike – I’m not the fastest cyclist in town but can offer a slow steady ride of different neighborhoods in Davis.
