I am mapping a new bike route for a buddy and me, and I can't seem to find a decent way to print it off so I do not get lost. Am I missing a button somewhere?

If you create a cue sheet, those directions are easy to print off with a printer-friendly view.

But with the map, you are best to take a screenshot (print scr button) of the map and import it into a program to print (photo program, maybe Word).  We're looking into map printing functionality.

To create a Cue Sheet:

When creating or editing a route, click on a point and a balloon will pop up with 2 tabs. 
 
Directions: The front most tab accepts directions for that point eg "Turn Left On Main St."
Once directions are entered, a button called 'Cue Sheet' will become available on the left side of the window. 
 
Click on the button and a new window with the directions formatted for printing will pop up. 
 
In View mode, the directions are displayed in the balloon.  Any points with associated directions or images will be black to make them easily identifiable. 

 We haven't added any printing functionality yet. We've looked into it, and it turns out that due to some printing/graphics issues with Google Maps we'd have to go to a different map provider for printing. We'd also have to examine the financial aspect of it, as print quality maps are expensive to provide.
