    Thanks for your help. I have now resolved this. I am a gold member. The options I get under Route Optimisation are Shortest and Fastest. I understand that you recommend I select Shortest.

      It depends on your what you want. Shortest means every little s***street available or streets through large cities will be in your route. But you can try both possibilities and decide what comes closest to your needs.

      Met andere apps maak je een route, met MRA componeer je een route!

          Lex, thats really harsh to put it like this!

          It's not only streets but also ferry's and so on.

          @Ben-Harrison-Graham
          A lot of users who keeps optimization on fastest experience problems like crossing a river with ferry.

          Why?. And this is wat @Lex.Kloet.RX dors not explain to you:
          Having optimization on fastest means that MRA calculate the fastest route which might not be the route you want.

          As example: getting from A to B might take 60 minutes with a ferry and MRA set on shortest while having MRA set to fastest takes 50 minutes using a bridge further down the river. Guess which route MRA will choose when optimization set to fastest although you wanna cross the river using the ferry.....

          It is recommended to set optimization to shortest to utilize MRA fully.

              I have found fastest to be more suitable for a day's ride I've just planned. Shortest and fastest did what they say.
              Thanks

                @Ben-Harrison-Graham jep, me too. You can always correct the route with a few shapingpoints. Shortest and a big city ahead, is not funny.

                          Je had eerder al beloofd dat je mij had geblokkeerd 😉
                          Zoals ik hierboven al heb aangehaald:

                          DAT is dus een advies dat doet voorkomen alsof dat algemeen gedragen wordt. En dat is niet zo.
                          It is advised = algemeen
                          I advise = wat JIJ adviseert

                          Ik ga jou NIET op blokkeren zetten, want het is veel te belangrijk dat sommige van jouw uitspraken gecorrigeerd worden. Dat kun je irritant vinden, maar dan kun je het beter laten. Niemand hier zit te wachten op desinformatie.

                          I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

                            I am locking this topic as the original question has been answered and the replies are becoming personal. The route optimisation tool is like any tool in the toolkit, how you choose to use it is a personal thing. Some people prefer to use a hammer instead of a screwdriver, that is their choice!

                            Always willing to help if I can.
