Thanks for the link to that page, James! There are a couple of empty cells (and other specifics) I might make suggestions about: Singletrack: highway=path (PLEASE ALSO INCLUDE a surface=* tag with this), bicycle=yes, width=* is helpful if you know it, Track road: highway=track, tracktype=[grade5, grade4, grade3, grade2, grade1], width=*, surface-=* bicycle=yes (or =designated or foot=yes...a bit flexible), Contraflow lane with separation: I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to specify, please see wiki pages cycleway=opposite_track and cycleway=opposite_lane. Sometimes, like with path/way data in our map, I'm OK with entering wiki which are sketchy (incomplete, yet a great start), though I won't enter data which are outright incorrect. This is an excellent document which should be converted into a Canada-based bicycle tagging wiki POST HASTE! (Well, at your convenience, of course: an "A-minus becoming an A-plus" is certainly ripe for wiki-hood). Wikis often start out as stubs and grow into (nearly) complete and/or (nearly) perfect documents; the operative word is "grow into." Your tagging guide is thoughtful and great work on documenting bicycle infrastructure. (I sheepishly hesitate to say it puts what we have in the USA — nothing close! — to a bit of shame). Well done!
