How do I share a folder to my fellow riders?

I am leading a week-long international cycle tour with about 30 people, so I created a folder for the ride with all of the relevant routes inside (including all-in-one tracks and the same routes broken up by day).  When I pass the various links to this (the map summary view is amazing, by the way), nobody on the ride can easily import these routes into their own navigation.  

I had to go to 29 people and tell each one to click on each route in a desktop web browser, find the ID number from the URL, and enter that.  This feels sub-optimal.

Nick, A

A couple of quick options to try.

First of all, you can download all the routes in a folder as a zip file. Note: these will be without elevation data. (However, if the user opens the route in CT, clicks on the elevation profile they can then save it with elevation data. 

Secondly, if you copy the URL when in the appropriate folder, send this to the users, they should be able to open/download the files. 

Unfortunately, I'd guess that 29 users possibly have different units so the process of getting the route onto the unit may need step by step instruction.

Thanks for the feedback on this one - c.t doesn’t have a lot of sharing functions right now but it’s something I’m keen to add in the future. I tend to ride solo so it’s good to hear what others would find useful!
