Just curious:

It's obviously a great (alternative :wink: ) site for GPX files, but how many of you actually subscribe and pay to use their 'print' function? Or knows someone who does.

Ta.

    Not me, registered for free use and if that was taken away I'd just use something else.

    Would never pay, and I can't think of a friend who would pay.

    I use http://www.openstreetmap.org/ or Anquet.

  • http://www.cyclestreets.net/ use the openstreetmap source mentioned by Buckled-rims above but with an overlay of cycle routes, photos, etc. Their journey planner is only for shortish distances so you might have to plan a 60 mile route in 3 20-mile sections.

    If you want to plan your own routes, mapyx's Quo v2 is pretty cheap and has a good print programme. The software is free but you have to pay for OS maps at very reasonable prices. I think 10 10X10km 1:250000 OS maps cost about £12.

    Both these give elevation profiles and are exportable to GPS devices.
