Route from another ridewithgps user ended up in my Hammerhead route library!

I suddenly found that a route "CO Day 1 Long" has arrived in my Hammerhead route library indicating its source was RideWithGPS.  But this route is not in my RWGPS library - this route is in Oregon, USA,and I'm in the UK with no plans to ride my bike in the USA!  So another RWGPS user's route has "leaked" into my Hammerhead route library.  How the heck did that happen?  I've worked out on RWGPS who's route it is and DM'd through RWGPS  (nobody I've ever had contact with) to see if they've got any idea how that happened.

  If another person's RWGPS route is pinned it will show up in your Hammerhead library. Other than you pinning it I don't know how it would have gotten pinned. But look for the route in the PInned tab on your RWGPS dashboard page and unpin it.

  Sorry, that can't be incorrect.  Only my RWGPS Pinned routes should show up in my library.  If everyone else's pinned routes ended up in my Hammerhead library, I'd have 100,000+ routes!

  That's why this is a mystery.

  I suspect it is a RWGPS bug. HH will just ask for your pinned routes and gets whatever it gets from RWGPS. Maybe log a bug report with RWGPS.

  However it got there it must have been a one-off fluke. I think deleting it from the HH dashboard should get rid of it.  I doubt it would show up again after syncing the HH dashboard to RWGPS but if it does check with them.
