I have made a small script (based on the documentation on the wiki) that 
allows you to quickly render a GPX file on an OSM slippy map. 

To use this, append the URL to the GPX file at:

  https://rejo.zenger.nl/topo/osm/?fn=[url-to-gpx-file]

That's it. 

For example:

  <https://rejo.zenger.nl/topo/osm/?fn=http://insecure.rejo.zenger.nl/gps/2009-04-18.gpx>

If that works and you want to include it into some webpage, use:

  <iframe src="https://rejo.zenger.nl/topo/osm/?fn=[url-of-track]" 
  width="[width-of-embedded-image]" height="[height-of-embedded-image]" 
  frameborder="0"></iframe>

You may add some variables to the URL which adjust the rendering of the 
GPX track on the Openstreetmap. By adding "&sc=black&sw=10&so=0.4" you 
would set the track to appear as a thick black and highly transparant, 
where the default is a medium thick, red and half-transparant line.
