Google Maps + GPS + heart rate data = Ubilabs TdF tracker
Ubilabs | Tour de France - Google Maps Tracks
Using rider GPS and heart-rate monitor data, Ubilabs has set up a cool Tour tracker that lets you monitor the position of 8 riders: Jens Voigt and Christian Vande Velde of CSC, Filippo Pozzato and Bram Tankink of QuickStep, Michael Rogers and Patrik Sinkewitz of T-Mobile, and Sebastian Lang and Beat Zberg of Gerolsteiner.
It also shows the course with intermediate sprints, king of the mountain lines, and feed zones.
Very cool.
(Via Typolis and Martin - Thanks!.)
