This website shows elevation gains. It is perfect for cyclists like me who hate uphills.
But the calculation for routes is not smart enough, it chose a 15 km alternative route for me to avoid uphills but my regular route is only 8.8 km. Sometimes it may even keep on calculating for a couple of hours. You may have to kill the IE process to stop it.
I don't believe the calories calculation result, it seems the weight of elevation gain VS speed is not proper. I definitely sweat more on my way home than go to work, as it is more steep.
My way to work:
Route length: 8.852 km.
Estimated time: 0 hr 35 min.
Speed: 15km/hr
Calories burned: 192.5 kCal.
Elevation gain: 71 m.
My way from work:
Route length: 8.841 km.
Estimated time: 0 hr 53 min.
Speed: 10km/hr
Calories burned: 192.3 kCal.
Elevation gain: 153 m.
