We have mapped the central ≈8'×5' of the spiral galaxy M101 with full beam width spacing (30″) in the CO(J=1−0) line using the Onsala 20m telescope. In total, observations were performed towards 153 positions, and 120 were definitely detected. We discuss briefly the distribution and kinematics of the CO gas.
