    Great - what would be REALLY USEFUL is to be able to select a scale at which to produce pdf maps (that can be printed) - perhaps 1:100.000 for cycling and 1:50,000 or eveb 1:25,000 for walking.

    I use Memory Map and whilst that's pretty much limited the UK and France it does have a good facility to print maps at a scale of the user's choosing.

    Hi Rob - there isn't currenlty any way for you to add a scale to printed maps I'm afraid, but I can see this would be very useful.  We'll look into how easy this would be for us to do - if it's a simple change we'll get it done soon and post back here.

    I print my routes to pdf (normally A4 size landscape) as multi pages - how can I tell what the scale is, or better still adjust it?   [Other mapping we use gives an idea of scal and gives a very crude "how far have I ridden" when crossing a map page by looking at the paper.

    I can't find a reference to the printed scale as you get on purchased paper maps.
