For those of you with Google Earth, just open this file and see where I went.

Ortega Highway, Palomar Mountain, then back to Ortega and home. Plus a little up & down, back & forth in betweens.

How do you do the viewpoint of the cursor like a flight simulator?

I'm not sure how to answer that question.

You can change your view aspect by clicking the scroll wheel and moving the mouse.... is that what you meant?

I thought you could make it so the camera view would follow the GPS track.

Hmmm... I thought so too, but never tried it. Guess I could google it... LOL

Google Earth Pro lets you fly the GPS track
Hijack mode off.

That looked like a cool ride!

This GPS to Google app on the Droid is awesome. You can even see where I get off the bike and walk around.

This map for the entire day's ride was only like 1.4Mb so it doesn't take up much space at all.

I'm really happy about being able to study my ride after the fact. Too bad I don't have Google earth pro : (
