Builder-centric
Generally, you'll start out with these general constraints on your route:
- Destination and Start
- Distance to be covered
- Some idea of the neighborhoods you'll want to visit.
Factors
- Sometimes you'll have a list of related destinations (Tiny Doors, for example)
- Age-related: stopping for sweets versus stopping for beer.
- Food preferences and budget.
Often, you'll work backwards from a Destination or forward from a Start and find an appropriate way to meet in the middle. Development is largely from a map of the route. Being able to piece together separate sections would be a big help.
Points of Interest
* Geographic location on the map
* Unique ID
* Add locks and keys found at this Point of Interest (can be more than one depending on difficulty level and also to provide variety)
* Point of Interest may be a business establishment who sponsors

Group POI
Leg
* A Leg is a path from one POI to another POI. These are what the User understands as a single traversal of the course between two POI.
* A Segment is a road, bike path, trail, or other routable transportation facility that has a start/end (and thus a length) and 1) can be described given a single rating and 2) would have no intermediate nodes. Adding a POI on a given Segment — or sufficiently close to that segment — will cause that Segment to be broken into two Segments.
* A Leg has an overall rating which is the length-weighted average of the segments making up that Leg.
* Legs are strung together in a particular sequence to form a Course.
* The Course can be determined ahead of time, or modified on the fly by choosing different POI and Legs.
Capture Segment
Provide methods for entering the data for a given segment
Rate Segment
Provide methods for determining an appropriate rating for a given segment
Split Segment
Take a given Segment and add a Node which becomes the end for one new segment's start and the start for the other segment's end.
Map Route to Segments
Given a GPS track, find the segments which correspond to that track. Display both the track and the segments so gaps can be reconciled.

Course
Course is a route (linking points of interest and their locks and keys) along with the clues to traverse the route.
This links together Points of Interest into a continuous route. For each pair, Actor will
* Identify Origin (may not be a Point of Interest to begin the route since people may be riding from somewhere off the course.
* Identify Destination
* Provide clues, one or more of the following:
* Verbal description of the Point of Interest
* Image or Video
* Series of turns (coded or otherwise)
* Route on a map highlighting the turns to make
