I noticed that when drawing a route in the UK, distances are displayed in miles while they are displayed in kilometers when drawing a route on the continent.

Provided there are enough of us metric people using Cycle.travel, I suggest letting the user choose which system to use, or as an an easier solution, just display distances in the two systems.

You can (hopefully!) already do this; when you’re logged in, go to the ‘Profile’ page and there should be an option there.

Thanks, my question answered before I asked it, guess I should fill in my profile now that I've had a good play on your excellent site.
