Anyone know if any of these online mapping tools are able to reverse a route?

basically grabbed a nice route off a mate have imported into mymyride but there doesn't seem to be an option

Can you do this with garmin/biketoaster/google maps?

Can't you just save it as a track?

There's a very easy way to do it without any mapping tools - simply open the GPX in excel, number all the points 1 to 999 cut then to a new sheet, resort in reverse order and paste them back in.

A track is lot of points very close together like a breadcrumb trail, recorded as you are riding along usually.

A route is a list of way points used for navigation. There are much fewer points than a track, as you tend to only put waypoints where you need to make a turn.

A course is a route with time additional training information added. You can navigate a course - just ignore the speed information.
