Turns out my mate was after a bike as well, so we've agreed to go at the weekends to do some mountain biking.

Would you believe it, he just got home tonight having picked up a GT Aggressor 3.  Looks identical to my GT Palomar but a different colour  :grin:

Does anyone use a GPS device to plotting, loading routes?

Which do you use?  I'm trying to find something I can load routes on to, GPX seems the popular format?

Thinking of trying this for the iPhone. http://www.viewranger.com/en-gb

Read your post wrong, thought you meant plotting route you take. Not routes to follow.
I don't bother with that just ride wherever and find some good routes
