It's not a route. It is called a "fietsstraat" in Dutch, which litterally translates to cyclestreet in English. Apart from the signs they generally do fancy stuff with the road surfacing that encourages cyclists to ride in the middle of the road, so it is harder for cars to pass them. <http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bestand:Fietsstraat.JPG> -- m.v.g., Cartinus _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
