Re: setting route preferences inside each planned trip
I have done the same and come to the same conclusion. Having the track on the map, as @jfheath mentioned, makes is easy to see when a recalc results in a deviation from the intended route. When that happens, your options are to manually follow the track or to restart the route. I even had the ...

Re: setting route preferences inside each planned trip
Here's what I do all the time, with virtually every route: This may not set all preferences but it does do some. Be aware that the route may change slightly when you change preferences and avoidances so check your route again before and after. I hear you. And this is the "tricky" point, we have to ...

Re: setting route preferences inside each planned trip
You can change a trip to use Adventurous. When you start a trip, then you can move the slider for more or less Adventurous. Hello, I am not searching for differences, but for "my preferences" actually. I want the trip to be the exact route I created on Basecamp or on another software. I will ...

setting route preferences inside each planned trip
Hello I wonder if Garmin could plan to have preferences set inside each single planned trip. I mean, if I plan a trop on Monday with highways allowed, and a trip on Tuesday with no highways, I have to set the general parameters on Tuesday morning, not to ride on highways. It would be kind of much ...
