This is something I use. I have several small bike riding routes mapped out on this site. It's called RouteSlip and it's a way for you to create directions that you can follow to and from a certain point, anywhere.

You start out with a map of the area where you want to start your trip. Then you draw a line along the route you want to take on your trip. The map will tell you how far you've gone at every point you make on the map. Wherever there's a turn or some place on the trip map that you want to make a note you can make one and tell which direction to go and enter street names.

When you're finished creating your route you'll be given a step by step route slip that you can print out and take with you on your trip. It'll list all the points where you make notes and added direction.

This is great for planning a hike, a walk, a bike ride or maybe even a car trip. You can even add other people's routes to your list. Try it out and let me know what you think of it.
