One of my personal social campaigns is to help people understand that the hills of San Francisco are only a problem if you don't know how to get around them. Amar Pai solved that problem with a SF bicycle route planner that shows you a variety of routes for your trip such as the most bike-friendly or the shortest path. The site should work better on mobile phones now, and it will automatically determine your location if you're on a device that supports geolocation (right now just iphone 3.0). Email Amar (jcruelty1 at yahoo dot com) if you have comments on the site, the user interface or any other feedback.You can also find your route the old-fashioned way with the color-coded San Francisco Bicycle Map, which shows the best bike routes across town and is compact and easy to carry. It's free with San Francisco Bicycle Coalition membership.
