Doesn't look too bad, but it can't distinguish between a bike path and "share the road". Desert Foothills and Red Rock Ranch road is not marked. Same goes for Apple Drive, Preakness Dr, etc. Lakeshore road is not even marked either, and they obviously have a path. Definitely need work, but looks promising!! :-) I wonder if someday we should plan a weekly "Google Biking Day" just to focus on finding all the proper route information, whether it's share the road, a bike path, or total separate from the motorized road (trails). Then report our findings back to Google. Wouldn't it be great? And that would totally help the visitors so we can just refer them to the map and the Route information. :-) Hmm, took a quick look.
