Could you read the posting guidelines and post a link rather than
code?

The problem you are having is there is a 25 waypoint limit for
GDirections (which you use if you want to get directions/create a
polyline that follows the roads).  A GPolyline itself has no limit to
the number of points it contains (the practical limit depends on the
browser and the processing power of the computer).
