Yeah, I was going to suggest using Komoot as it lets you simply change the starting point.

@grudas Thanks a lot. I always use Strava for my routing as i often steal local rides i see, and then it syncs to my Garmin, but maybe Komoot is the way forward.

yeah I try to use strava too as I paid for it but it does lack some basic features imo, especially when it comes to routes. Komoot is good for finding local stuff too and depending on which garming you've got, you can download the komoot app to it and go from there. Even easier. You don't have to tho, courses do sync to the general "courses" list anyway.

What's the general consensus here on getting a professional Bikefit for a new road bike?

Got a new bike and awaiting my pedals/SPDs, Reddit is full of people that wouldn't ride a bike without it or would never spend money on it

Best money i've ever spent, but relies upon having a good fitter as there are so many about nowadays. I had my first fit in 2014 and generally that's the base point for any new bike I get, I had another done a couple of years ago, but that was just for my TT bike, should probably go and get an updated road bike fit.
