bikehike.co.uk alternatives?

The OS tiles are sown here, and I've been having issues getting the OS tiles for quite a while. Anyone able to recommend some other good plotting sites that has the OS maps embedded?

Cheers

Sorry, can't help with alternatives, but just wanted to say I've recently started having issues with the OS maps on bikehike too.

Seems like it's only parts of it though, which is odd.

bugger.
I've got this inckling that it might be a downfall as not so long ago the master stopped support for routes databases. Fingers crossed all will be resolved.

I did see someone once use a page that was the same as bikehike but the screen was split 50:50 with no border or boxes around. No idea what it was though.

I also have a few probs with bikehike these days, again, only on OS tiles. Hope they get it back up and running as it was the only site I knew, real handy too

Not free but i find it useful with ability to print a4 maps of routes,you can also save routes and print 1/2 page maps for free if you register.
Would be better if it was split screen sattelite/os map.
