Ride with gps has what I and many others think is just about the best routing algorithm for road cycling.

The only change I would make on the last page is track up as opposed to North up. Track up means the map rotates to your direction of travel, like most car sat navs.
Thanks again. It's like having to learn it all again, wasn't expecting that. I see that it's not possible to trace a route on osm, but there are plenty of other websites that let you do that based on their maps. Would you have a recommendation of which one is best for cycling here in the UK? One that makes good visual suggestions of what's a nice country lane and what's a terribly busy local road?
