Bicycle Trip Planning Tool

The trip planner function in GoogleEarth is not currently designed for bike route selection. If you want to explore specific origin/destinations for selecting a bike route, please visit ByCycle.org. ByCycle's web site includes an online bicycle trip planner for the Portland metropolitan region. It uses Metro's bike map data.
