I am looking for something that would log my current and past locations, send it to a map to which someone remotely can view it or I can share it on the Internet.

My friend has Spot which isn't bad, but he pays for this service.

Features I am looking for:

- No reoccurring fees. I hate monthly or yearly charges.
- Shows on a map trip path and current location. Also ability to see the map on a webpage or Facebook.
-iPhone integration. (It already has GPS and cellular linkage to send data. Plus it is being charged with the USB port in the bag!)
-Logging average speed and other stats is nice but not needed.

I have been looking and the app MotionX looks like it would do what I want but I figured I would ask you guys.

What are you using to track your rides, etc?

My wife is an avid runner. She uses a free app called map my run. Perhaps this is an app that will do what you are looking for to map your rides?

There is one from Victory called Victory Rides. It works great.

Victory Rides got bad reviews. But I have not used it myself :)

I tried the bicycle version this morning while dropping off my kid at school. I think it will work for longer trips, it posted a course on Facebook.
