Hi, I've used an App called RunKeeper, which records the route, and auto-uploads to the RunKeeper site, from there they have an export to GPX. The thing I like about RunKeeper is that you can also take photos, etc (of street signs, features, etc), and it will display them on the RunKeeper site.
Since RunKeeper displays the route laid over Google Maps, you will want to switch to Satelite view, without labels, to avoid including details from Google. I've used it mostly to collect street names and the like near my area. There are lots of residential streets mapped (presumably arm-chair mapping), but no names. I've also used OSM Track, which is good for displaying the parts of the map that are there. You do not need to be on-line as you pre-populate its database with OSM objects before heading out. Ultimately, the best thing is to try out the available options, and find out what works best for you.
