I'm sure someone posted up another site where you could map rides with OS mapping now that bikehike has shut down.

to be fair, it's just the database that's shut down - the rest of the site works

Yeah, but the route database was the most useful thing about it, that you could just map a route and stick up a link to it.
Is there some way to store a route on wheresthepath so you can link to it?
It is annoying, because it clearly isn't a real legal risk, as a whole bunch of people (google, mapmyride/run, bikely, Ordnance Survey etc.) host routes, mapping data and all that. If they seriously thought there was any chance they'd be liable if someone rode a bike off a cliff, they wouldn't do it, and I'm sure they have very good legal advice, not just someone who isn't quite sure, who of course isn't willing to rule out the possibility (as any lawyer will when they are not sure about something).
