I completed a 3 day ride recently for which my C.T maps and TbT prints were perfect for everything except showing people a rough idea of where I went.  Would it be possible to add another option to the maps print to get the whole route scaled to one page?  Preferably with an (optional?) elevation plot beneath.

I tried doing this with a screenshot but there are so many markers in the way on screen it's not ideal.

Thanks Richard

Hm. There’s actually a feature that does this but it might be too low-resolution – see what you think.

If your ride is saved at http://cycle.travel/map/journey/12612

then you can get an overview image at http://cycle.travel/generated/cards/12612.jpg

i.e. carrying through the route id (12612) from one URL to the next. It’s designed so that if you post your route to Twitter or Facebook, the image automatically shows up. Is that any good?

That'll do, it's just to give any idea.

Cheers, I'd not spotted that feature.
