    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.

    what’;s the difference between a track and a course?

    in garmin training centre there is only ‘course’ and not track

    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.
