Google maps would be accurate except for fences

Google maps had me leaving Vancouver nicely along the waterfront until I came to a housing complex with no apparent way through to the road I needed to be on.  Then I found this path along the fence that popped me out onto the road.  Whew!  That would've meant a long backtrack.



Hit two very steep (17%) grades (see distance in picture below).  Luckily they were short and my chain didn't slip on the cassette.  I think I need to finally replace them after so many thousands of miles.
