Mapping curated bike routes in LA - Nina & Amy create a map! Amy is the cyclist learning tech. Nina is the techie learning to ride. We both love maps and created this project as a way for each of us to share our knowledge with the other. We want this to turn into a useful resource that helps more people ride their bikes in Los Angeles.
5/8/17 - Updated README with more information. In considering how to load new data and display it on the map, I think we may want to load it directly into Mapbox as a dataset (after converting gpx to geojson using: https://mapbox.github.io/togeojson/).
4/15/17 - Added popups to the route polylines. Currently it's hardcoded to display the route name straight from the XML.
4/9/17 - Added mouseover/mouseout events to gpx.js. Set default and hover values for weight and opacity.
4/5/17 - Found where the default blue polyline color was defined in gpx.js. Passed in a polyline_options object to make a red line.
4/3/17 - Created basic full page web map. Mapped a sample GPX route from Amy's morning ride. Need to figure out how to customize route color and how to smooth the line generated by the GPX.
