-
-```
-Route path: /user/:userId(\d+)
-Request URL: http://localhost:3000/user/42
-req.params: {"userId": "42"}
-```

 You can provide multiple callback functions that behave like [middleware](/{{ page.lang }}/guide/using-middleware.html) to handle a request. The only exception is that these callbacks might invoke `next('route')` to bypass the remaining route callbacks. You can use this mechanism to impose pre-conditions on a route, then pass control to subsequent routes if there's no reason to proceed with the current route.
