How to easily and accurately create a FIT Course using Basecamp.

Only direct routing will create a gpx which contains multiple waypoints needed to create a FIT Course.

This is tedious and laborious. However, there is a trick:

Create a route in Basecamp NOT using direct routing but select , say , cycling or hiking.
Select Route and Right Click , then Right Click & tick 'Create Track from Route'.
Save as GPX
Load GPX into GPX ConVerter and from the main menu click GPX to FIT.
There is one drawback: Waypoint labels are all the same.
