I added a route to the cycleroutes and wanted to know if it's possible to change the route time, the one I've uploaded reckons it'll take over 4 hours when in fact it's closer to 2.5-3 Here's the route by the way http://www.cycle-route.com/routes/Lurgan_to_The_Dromara_Hills_and_Back-Cycle-Route-4032.html |

We don't have an option for members to alter the time as we have to cater for all fitness levels. This is actually quite difficult for us to judge because you may get a really fast downhill road route that averages much quicker than a slow uphill MTB trail. These times also depend on what type of bike the cyclist is using. Our estimated route time is based on 10 mph to simply indicate an average time if there were equal uphills/downhills/flats with average fitness, but admin can alter the estimated time if the member has given enough information on the route description. Therefore the more information members give us about the ride, the more chance we have of giving other users a more accurate estimation. If you use the times as a guide for an average cyclist and judge where you consider yourself fitness wise (eg. a beginner may take longer, and an advanced cyclist may be quicker) I hope this has answered your question |
