You could use different tagging on the relation. My point was that the route isn't actually a regional cycle network but that's how you have it tagged so it shows up on cyclemap. I don't know if any routers actually pay attention to cycle network but in theory this tagging would influence bicycle routing across the area to favor the roads in the RAGBRAI routes when this isn't really the right thing to do.
