Website that converts cycle route into Video with Streetview

As in the description !

I've seen a website somewhere that would import a route from Strava or somewhere and then play it with google street view - in real time ?

Anyone remember what it was ? I know it seemed a great idea at the time...

Handy for looking at routes whilst on a turbo or whatever.

Very unsure about this, but I think Tacx Bushido/Genius will do this with Tacx TTS 4 software. Imports a file from Google Earth, and links it to the trainer, sort of a real time view, and automatic variable resistance to replicate climbing. You need a special Google licence for the Google Earth bit.

Hmmm - its not that - it wasnt trainer specific - just a website you'd have open and set at whatever speed you want - so not exactly realistic but kind of handy for getting used to a course ?

This website sounded really useful for me (who has ended up down some pretty technical trails on a road bike!) so I went looking and found this:

I would like to point out one of the comments;
Pro-tip: Let it play/load the photos, then click on the blue bar and hold it back until it is all yellow, then it will play like a video.
