How to select an alternative routes in MyDrive?

I recently bought TomTom 620 and have been testing it for a while. I also coupled MyDrive with the device. Particularly, I was playing with maps and routes and sending them to the TomTom.
One problem is when I found route I was always given an alternative suggestions. I can only send the "fastest" route. Whenever I select the other routes, the "send" button becomes inactive. When the route is already in drive, it is possible to select an alternative route, though. Is there any setting I should change that let me choose what I want, not what is the fastest?
I did try to change route to Thrill but then I ended up with loop routes and two groups of icons which did not really affect what TomTom finds!
Thanks

The second method when adding an extra stop seems to work, although someone mentioned there was a bug I did not quite understand. I think I'll simply stick to sending an original route and change it in a device. I am surprised simple "send" does not work.

The 'Send to device' route planning bug.....

If you only ever plan routes from your present location i.e. The start of the route is your present location, you won't be troubled by the bug
The problem occurs (When like in the example In the link)... Say in 2days time you need to travel from Birkenhead to Manchester and you're based in Worcestershire... If you plan the route Worcestershire --> Birkenhead --> Manchester, then 'Send to device' all should be well
But if you plan a route Birkenhead --> Manchester, (your still in Worcestershire) then 'Send to device' the device completely ignores Birkenhead and plans a route directly from Worcestershire --> Manchester
The workaround is to use an extra 'Sacrificial Stop' (Like in the example) placed near to your stop in Birkenhead, then 'Send to device' the device will then calculate the correct route.....
Worcestershire --> Birkenhead --> Manchester

Many thanks for your reply. Despite TomTom has not fixed this, your suggestion works indeed easy as well.
