FAO cycle faces

What’s the best route app?

My fantasy app would make it easy to plan a route by clicking on places and then working out that you’ll get cycling on the road between those places rather than going straight across country. And it would give you the distance and the ascent and a route profile. And then it would act like a satnav while you cycle it.

I’m not that keen on Strava which I find intrusive and not intuitive. Is BikeMap any good? Any others?
