We finally have the June 2012 route nailed down. We tried to use Google's map routing tool to do this but it was just a disaster. So, we are providing the route in a Flash map viewer along with some JPEG images that you can view online.
Route Maps

Northern Hemisphere Route Maps (June)
View the route map using the Zoomify Flash Viewer.
This allows you to zoom and pan the route map much the same way that Google maps does it. Won't work on iPads or iPhones.
Click on the image above to go to the external site hosting the Zoomify Viewer and the tile server hosting the map.
View the route online via this JPEG image link.
Or, download into your smart phone to view while on the ride, in case you lose the group, need to find a nearby bike repair shop, restroom or water fountain.

Then print and take along with you on the ride.
Click on the thumbnails.
Clicking either image gives you the same PDF. The PDF is ~1 Mb and has been highly compressed to provide easier web delivery. While there are a lot of JPEG artifacts, the maps are still readable when printed. It would probably be best to print both maps in color, back-to-back on the same sheet.
