Hi,
I had a similar issue while extracting an elevation profile for a river.
I think it's similar to your problem.
Afaik v.drape produces x,y,z vector map, if you need to export it,
maybe you should use v.out.ascii. However, v.drape gives coordinates of
points, NOT the distance between each point which I think you need if
you want to get an elevation profile (distance vs elevation). To do this
I suggest the following:
v.out.ascii of your 2d vector (road)
cat output_of_v.out.ascii | r.profile input=your_dem
output=elevation_profile
Hope it helps
cheers
