Can I transfer a Cycle Travel route from a PC directly to a GPS device (Garmin Etrex32x) without going via another program, such as Basecamp?

I prefer to plot my proposed route (or is it a track) on Cycle travel on my PC, save it as a GPX, upload it into Basecamp and then transfer it onto my GPS device (Etrex32x) for use on my bicycle. This is a bit slow and cumbersome. Can I go direct PC  to GPS device? or can Igo directly from phone or tablet based App to my device?

This would also have the added advantage of being able to modify or create a route (track) whilst on tour without carrying a Laptop PC. We normally carry only Android phones and Lenovo Tablets.

Thanks for your comments.

Joining separate routes

Having created two separate but sequential routes i.e. Route 1 From A to B and Route 2 From B to C, I should now like to combine these into a single route From A to C.

Is this possible in Cycle travel? Tim Hoyle.

Discrepancy between actual and calculated ascents

Yesterday on a hilly ride of 32miles my Garmin Etrex 30 recorded a total ascent of 547 metres. When I uploaded the track into the Cycle Travel webpage it shows a total ascent of only 430metres. Why the difference?

This is my Cycle Travel upload https://cycle.travel/map/journey/710433. This is my Garmin track - or not - as I'm struggling to copy it as a gpx. If it is useful to anyone I'll try harder! Here it is ! - https://cycle.travel/gpx/710433.gpx

Abbreviations again!

The Wolf Way in Suffolk has part of its route using the EV12. It is also marked with the abbreviation HoSR. Please can you tell me what the abbreviation stands for?  Thanks, Tim.

Importing a GPX track.

Dear Richard, I have a GPX track downloaded from a Cicerone guide which I would like to modify using Cycle.Travel before then using it on a tour. I could modify it in Basecamp but this is very clunky and Cycle.Travel is easier yo use. Is it possible to import a track into Cycle.Travel for this purpose?

Thanks, Tim
