saved course simply because it is a good route. For
example, you can save and follow a bike friendly commute to
work.
Racing against a previously recorded activity: You can also
follow a saved course, trying to match or exceed previously
set performance goals. For example, if the original course
was completed in 30 minutes, you can race against a Virtual
Partner trying to complete the course in under 30 minutes.

Displaying a Course on the Map

alternate course display in green. This allows you to see the
courses while you are riding, but not follow or navigate a
particular course.
