.fit download stopped installing on Garmin Edge25 5 175 More on my post. If I download the route in GPX and use Alltrails to convert it to .fit it works ok on Garmin. So confirms its Plotaroute not creating a good .fit file.

Reverse Route 3 167 Is there ... Or if not, could there be an option to reverse the route I've made. I have made a route but now I've decided to run it in reverse and it would save me replanning it if there was a rever

Option to keep elevation data of imported route 16 278 That's very interesting Anders, thanks for sharing that analysis. I guess one good thing is that the underlying shapes are all generally the same, with the main peaks and troughs in the same place.El

Waypoints: None vs POI vs Directions? 8 335 Okay from what I read following your links, "Directions" are not automatically generated by selecting it during the download process, which is how I interpreted it, but rather Directions have to be m
