Okay I just created a typical route I usually create in gmap-pedometer using single clicks. Feedback:

1. The routes don't follow the street...this is good when I go off the road but not so good when I am 100% roads. I like how gmap follows the street as much as possible until you switch it to "off road" which lets you route wherever you want.

2. I really like your elevation chart. Nice job. What would be even better is if the elevation chart had an X-axis that mapped the elevation to the current distance in the run. That way I know that the hill will hit me at mile 4, etc.

3. Public link to route should automatically highlight and copy for me. (click to copy)

Additional ideas for features:

-let me drop a note at a certain place along the route to share info -let the community specify areas of high traffic, tourists, etc. -share routes with the community, get feedback

-one problem which I haven't thought about too much yet. when we share routes with each other, everyone has a different "starting" location. it would be good if your site knew my starting location and then when I viewed someone else's route it would automatically re-route and re-calculate the fastest way for me to join his route and at which point to join.... I hope that makes sense.

great work overall.
