easy on the laptop, but yet to work it out on the go...

I don't think that you can do that.

If you think that you might need to, reverse the route on Mapsource and then load both normal and reversed routes into your SPIII.

I think Greg is right - I have a GPS V and I don't think this has this feature. Only thing you could do is stop the route - save the track log and then tracback to beginning - this should take you back the way you came to the point where the track log started recording that particular log.
Let us know if you find another way.

Bob.

I've a 176 and can reverse route - is this what you mean?

Select the route, then menu and the option to reverse route is displayed along with various others.

I thought with auto-routing products they deliberately stopped you from doing this.

ie a route that goes down a one way street is not backtrackable so they want you to generate a new auto-route

Well I cant find a way of doing it. Seems stupid to me having gone to the trouble of creating complex routes, also combined with the fact that you cant load many waypoints. Oh well.
