HI NEw here so sorry if this is a repeat...

This link lets you plot your route using googlemaps and then you can save, work out distance, print etc...

Why use a 3rd party tool to do what google's website does anyway? You just need a login and you can create routes and plot them out.

www.local.live.com is better cause u can have ariel photos as well. you can also calculate shortest time as well as distance.

Gmap-pedometer shows altitude on the ride and also has a basic calorie counter so it's a good site. I use it then export to gpx

Spotted the Google Street live car in Bristol today. Managed to capture it on my ATC2K




Look out for a black vauxhall astra with a bloody big camera on the roof. The camera was covered up today.

Try http://www.bikehike.co.uk/mapview.php

Its the only one Ive found that uses OS maps and you can toggle/view both OS and sattelite images at the same time, darn handy.
