[Closed] Ride with GPS

I've always used Ride with GPS to create routes for my GPS. Today when I've tried to do this it's asking me to upgrade to premium (I use it infrequently so don't really want to start a subscription). I've never had this before. The website seems to indicate that you can use the free version to create a route.... Anyone else use this and had similar problems.

Alternatively, suggestions for alternatives ( I use a Garmin if that's relevant)
Thanks

Bikehike.co.uk

Seems to have been fixed (for now).
Very easy to create and export GPS routes.

It works for me as a free user - I just made a quick test to see and all is good.

There are some fancier features you have to pay for but I've never felt the need.

Garmin Basecamp, with the TalkyToaster maps is a good desktop alternative

The maps are available as a free version, but a yearly subscription isn't too much, and I like to support the developer, as he's independent and a good guy.
You can have the same maps on your desktop and your Garmin, so that things match up nicely.

Haven't used rwgps for a while, I use Strava, but that costs.
