Matt Derrick submitted a new file to the downloads area:

Copied from this web page:

This guy took all of the ACA GPS waypoint data and made them into 21 .kmz (Google Earth) files
I zipped them all up into with some directions for offline use:

Everywhere
If anyone is curious this also works on iOS.
Managed to download it with Puffin Browser to dropbox, unzip with iZip pro- from there the kmz files will open in Google Earth.

Thanks

Like East just said, you can open it in Google Earth.

With a laptop, you could convert the kmz to a gpx file and import it into a GPS navigation app.

Just checked... MAPS.ME opens these files just fine on android. Says I need to enable location services to calculate route though.

Either way you got a general outline of a bike route.
Neat. I'm pretty sure I grabbed these files before but just now tried em out.

Thanks Matt
