not sure if it's been covered before but was looking for something to pass the time on the trainer

put in start finish point and ride the route in street view, works a treat on full screen.

Or has anyone found a better site to do same?

    Sufferfest and combined with a Trainer Road subscription passes the time on a turbo just slightly more effectively for training purposes.. if that's your intention.

    would that allow me to ride routes of my choice?

    All I've managed to look at on last few turbo sessions has been the great big stopwatch I have on the screen in front of me, got an easier session tomorrow so might have a look at the link above, or find a sufferfest that fits the session. The more I use the turbo as a proper training tool the less I am able to look at the screen other than in recovery sections. Work hard and you stop watching.

    Run TrainerRoad along the bottom of your screen and have your Google thing as the main 'window' and Bobs your proverbial uncle.

    TranierRoad only works if you use your PC, I converted all the files to DVD so I could watch them on the big TV in the garage.
