Hi All, I am new to web design and currently trying to build a website which has lots of Google maps to do with good roads to ride plus things that are near that ride. Currently the site uses Google my maps and allows me to generate the directions, route and start and finish points plus with lots of work allows me to add accommodation, pubs and shops near that ride that may be of interest. The question is..... Could this be done with Google API and would it be easier to do? But please remember I am new to web design (learning as I go) and know nothing about Google APIs Any advice would be appreciated.
