Chris does the initial linear segment definitions By Object for the entire alignment in one pass - a powerful thing to know in Civil 3D.
Notice how newer versions of Civil 3D allow us to employ changes to Tangency Constraints to remove Best Fit data from the curves.
If you still get stuck, you can always employ LandXML out and in to remove the Best Fit data from the alignment definition.
This is a more common problem if you Best Fit an entire alignment or profile in Civil 3D.
