greenchopzu8 sign the googlemaps "bike there" feature petition

googlemaps is everyone’s friend. we’ve all used it before, and it works pretty damn good. and recently, they added a "take public transit" option, which adds not only good, sound alternate functionality, but also provides another means of easing people’s reliance upon one-car-per-person.

well, the good folks over at GOOGLEMAPSBIKETHERE.ORG have organized THIS ONLINE PETITION to ask google to add "bike there" functionality to their GIS functionality, and of course, this kid supports the hell out of that.

i hope you do too!
