Looks like that'll do the job for me, and a second hand dedicated unit for the other half would probably be best.

It works well for mountainbiking too, only problem is it eats your battery if you have no way to charge it.
For £5!!! Are you crazy?

Just Download it free. Its a great app i love it! Not good though when it logs you doing 113mph :P! Funny though my speedo reads 121mph but ride logger said 113mph. Which is more accurate?

As said mytrack. Its great! I love it. Export to google earth and google apps and all that Its a google product as well so intergrates well!

If you want a dedicated unit for the other half, why not try the Orange San Fransisco, its an android phone that is cheap £100 on pay as you go, and it is fairly well regarded.

Cant find it on orange shop as its being crap but here it is at argos. If you dont want it on Orange its easy and free to unlock!

Sport tracker is a good one, however I think it's only on Nokia and some Sony phones.

That entire journey you posted looks like A Roads, which have a 60mph limit. Your GPS track shows the time, the date, the location, and a max speed of 71.5mph GPS verified, which would have been more like 75+ mph on your speedo. There is plenty of evidence in that one screen shot to secure a conviction for a traffic offence.

I wouldn't have put that on the internet myself. Still is it worth trying to track you down for that speed? Probably not, but if it showed 100mph it might be a different story.
What screenshot? Lol.

What's the speed limit on a dual carriage way with a central divider and barrier? I thought it was 70, but I could be wrong?

Yes, that would be a 70 if it's NSL, but the graph along the bottom showed how many miles into the journey the speed was attained, hence what kind of road you are on at any given time.
