How to programmatically transition between routes using Ember.js' new Router

Question:

How do you do programmatically transition to a new route using the new Ember.js Router?

Background / Context

With the old Ember.js Router you could programmatically transition between routes/states using the router's send method:

//OLD Router Syntax
App = Ember.Application.create({
  Router: Ember.Router.extend({
    root: Ember.Route.extend({
      aRoute: Ember.Route.extend({
        route: '/',
        moveElsewhere: Ember.Route.transitionTo('bRoute')
      }),
      bRoute: Ember.Route.extend({
        route: '/someOtherLocation'
      })
    })
  })
});
App.initialize();

Programatic Transition:

App.get('router').send('moveElsewhere');

Given the new Ember.js Router (below) how do we accomplish the same thing?

//NEW Router Syntax
App.Router.map(function(match) {
  match('/').to('aRoute');
  match('/someOtherLocation').to('bRoute');
});

Work Around (Bad Solution?)

this can't be right, right?:

window.location = window.location.href + "#/someOtherLocation";

Solutions that don't seem to work with the New Router:

1) calling the send method on the App.router instance

> App.router.send("moveElseWhere")
TypeError: Cannot call method 'send' of undefined

2) Explicitly declaring the Route and setting an event

App.ARoute = Ember.Route.extend({
  events: {
    moveElseWhere: function(context){
       this.transitionTo('bRoute');
    }
  }
);

App.UploadRoute.moveElseWhere()
TypeError: Object (subclass of Ember.Route) has no method 'moveElseWhere'

Note: At time of writing the Ember.js Router documentation still refers to the Old Router, where as the ember.js ember-router
