Until a few minutes ago, one of my concerns about cycle.travel was that unlike other services, I could only route to a town or city, not to a specific hotel. There is nothing worse in my view than hammering your way through bad weather to get to your next overnight stop and find that your hotel is some distance away from where your route takes you. But I now realise that in fact if you put the name of the hotel with the town your are going to, your route will take you to the front door of that hotel. At least in some cases that I tried. Is it possible that if your hotel is one one of those suggested by C.T when you are doing the actual route planning, then you will be able to route directly to it? If so, this is yet another wonderful bit of support from C.T

I am trying to up my monthly contribition as promised but can't figure out how to do that. Could you please advise. As well, could I ask about the various maps on offer. You commented on a forum about my having heard that RWGPS often has different routings depending on the map chosen. Is that the case with C.T? Your comments about quiet roads and limited climbing are the driving factor in using C.T. Thanks very much.
Actually, just figured out to Patreon question but would appreciate the requested comments about maps when you get an opportunity.
Cheers
I am trying to plan a route from Wells Next The Sea to Burnham via Walshingham and back to Well. But C.T doesn't want to let me do the last bit to aarrive back where we started from. If Richard sees this, the route is in my journeys marked '3A'. I would very much appreciate advice. Thanks
Is there any way to plan a day's route from the actual address (a hotel for instance) that one is using and finish the day at the hotel for that night? I have been thinking that I could put the hotels in my Garmin and then at the end of the gay simply ask the Garmin to sort a route to that hotel. Equally, I know that the Garmin will ask if I want to be directed to the start of a route.
But in a large city, that could add many miles to the day's ride and on a wet and windy day, it would be ideal to route from and to the appropriate hotels. RideWithGPS does do this, but I am in the processing of planning my first tour using C.T as I think it is a very much better tool for me - but I do wish C.T could provide this.
Thanks
I am struggling with Cycle.Travel. I moved across from RideWithGPS because of the IGN map availability on Cycle.Travel but I simply can't come to terms with the instructions - unlike RWGPS which I find to be exceptionally easy to use.
For instance. Should I wish to undo a leg of my route that I am creating, I am instructed to look to the side of the map where I am told I will see a button. Click on that, and I can delete the last waypoint, I'm told but not on my screen anyhow. The only way, it seems to me at least, that I can make a change is to delete each stage and start again. Surely I am doing something wrong. Any advice would be appreciated otherwise it is back to RWGPS even without IGN maps.
Thanks
