Interesting piece if modernity.
We are just back from a little group skate in Paris. As I carried my GPS, I could upload the map here :

The .kmz extension is Google Earth format : if you have Google Earth on your computer, just clicking the link will give you the route ; then push the "play" button and voila ! A nice little skat in Paris by 27°C.
The software is yet unable to convey the speed : I suppose it will come soon. |

Wow! - thanks Fred - a tremendous sense of moving through Paris at low altitude - I must try to download a London run from my GPS.
I had to turn of my Norton Internet Security program to get Google Earth to work though
ps It was great to meet you face to face at Philippe's workshop the other Saturday! |
