Thank you! I'll check the technical gpx-file stuff and the linked homepages at the weekend, try a bit by myself and then get back here. :)
You could start by creating fantasy races, to get an idea of how the editor works.

Can you give a few hints of what you actually need as fantasy? Do you have an overview? Because I am currently also designing a bit and would be helpful for me to know as well

Looks great at all! Thank you!
I thought the first stage is more uphill at the beginning (each of the first 2km's with at least 7%)?

At least on the homepage it looks more uphill: https://itzulia.eus/en/stages/bilbao-bilbao-2026/

Cheers,

Is that what you're looking for: https://ograncamino.gal/stage-1-2026?lang=en? (gpx-downloads for each stage under 'track')

Sorry if not, just trying to understand the process. Hope not to be encroaching. :)

Cheers,
Elmo

Hello. No it's more an internal tag in our database. It is used to link the different editions of the same race (different years) with each other. For example, when you click on the profile of a race and go to history, you can see who else has won the race in the past.

O Gran Camino was just ridden in 2025 (Februar) maybe that's the reason there is no tag yet (or I cannot find it).

Maybe this is not the best place to discuss it. But in short: the looks depend on the max altitude selected and the scale is very differently. What is actually counting is the altitude change of one km to the other. When you upload a gpx file the editor calculates it automatically. Additionally, you can adjust. I usually adjust the last km and the climbs based on the official information that is available. Sometimes from the official website, sometimes from information on la-flamme-rouge, sometimes from the route and gpx itself.

PS: the link is exactly what I came across as well
