The best point about TomTom Rider, is that you can use the free download TYRE to create bespoke routes, which is perfect for touring days, or complex routes where you want to avoid major towns and take in specific twisty roads, etc. This is what I mean:

1) Create point A-B route in Google Maps
2) Drag and drop the indicated line path of the route around to create specific waypoints to avoid major towns / enjoy specific roads
2) Select 'Link to this Page' (just above top right of map) and Ctrl C (copy)
