Kennedy/Shannon Road Bike Trail II

This is an easier Kennedy bike trail than the one I took last week. But it still has a couple of steeeeep hills and a number of panoramic views that take your breath away. The hardest hill is on the way back on Kennedy just after Shannon. Here is the elevation chart (the elevation chart needs to be improved). Here is the Ruby code for the map and the elevation. The data from my Garmin GPS device is in GPX 1.0. The times are in UTC and the elevations in meters. The display of distance and elevations is in feet and miles. But when you import the data the distances are in meters.

I created the elevation chart in dojo JavaScript library hoping that it would work on iPhone, but unfortunately it doesn’t. Its time to forget about client-side charting and go back to generating chart images on the server.

Hi

I am a layperson / biker who wants to chart a ride with elevations. Is there an easy way for a non techie guy to achieve this goal.

  A few of my friends use the Garmin Motion-based site for this.
