A second road option gives the rider a simple way to adapt when plans change.

A GPX file is a way to organise a motorcycle journey, not a substitute for understanding it. Surface changes, stopping points and alternative roads all deserve attention alongside the track. A clear route description helps another rider decide whether the plan suits their motorcycle and experience.
