94.7 Route in Google Earth

[rvdm1]

Hi, does anyone have a .kml file for this year's 94.7 route? I want to view it in google earth.

You wont be able to view it in Google Earth, there is full road closure on the day ... even for the satellites!

Luckily on race day, with all the road closures(even for satellites) I'll still be able to enjoy the route on my bike.

You can view it in the embedded Google Maps/Earth viewer or export as a .kml.

The distance in this one was a bit suspect, 85.7 miles but I found another one on the same site. Thanks for the help.

That's because the file also includes some post-race meandering. Mapmyride seems to get rid of all the lap data, but if you look at the Garmin Connect version I posted, you'll see the first lap correctly reports the race distance as being 97.7km.

 

Edit: Here's the course with the extra removed http://connect.garmin.com/course/250375
