Detailed map software for cycling planning...

Hi had a search but nothign come up.

I am looking for map software simialr to google maps and viamichelin.

Where you can search specific roads, such as D roads only in France (because clicking avoid tolls and motorway only offers you the N roads which are lorry roads).

Aldo would be nice to see gradients and total climb, much like the final screen on Strava.

I bet there is something out there.

Look forward to your answers.

Thanks.

Not sure what you mean by searching particular streets, I've never had to do that.

I use MapMyRide for route surveying. It gives you elevations and bike-friendly routes and will plot a route for you if you click only start and end points. It will email a planned route that you can then open in a phone if you have their app installed.

As it turns out I never use MapMyRide for anything else, though, I use Strava for actual recording of rides.

Thanks, I have signed up to that now and was what I was looking for.

I see you can use devices such as garmin and tomtom, how does this work with say Strava on Iphone?

I haven't figured out how to do that in Map My Ride on my iPhone. How do you do it?
