How can I get that corrected on the map?
It could be very inconvenient for a skinny tire road bike rider to discover they have to turn around or walk it 4 miles.
So, I've been meaning to add an option that adds a quick right-click and update for the surface type. However, it does already kind of exist, by navigating to the Open Street Map site, individuals can add the corrected surface info. As I've ran into the exact same issue, I've developed and added a classification AI that can pull satellite images throughout the unknown portions of your route and attempt to add this information, as demonstrated here: https://i.imgur.com/ycs7pEe.mp4

Also, great to hear about the connection to Garmin! Myself, and my two roomates, all have Garmin devices, so this was pretty critical. It did take over a month to integrate though and came with a bunch of challenges, so I'm super glad to hear it went off without a hitch!
