I suggest JOSM it seems to be easier to use to me. Cycle maps is just in the render, either click on the plussign to the right of the web page map or use Maperitive with a cycle path render set of rules.<br><br>Cheerio John<br>

I'm going to add detail to Lake Skemonto... have a look and see. Your<br>
homework will be to make a new lake... go north east a bit, and add in<br>
Little Long Pond. I'll be watching to see how you do! 8)<br>

Well, I tried and am totally frustrated with the POTLATCH editor. I picked Turkey Lake. I zoomed in to get more detail. The lake did not fit totally on the screen. I then started to plot the lake presuming I could pan the image to continue. I had a lot of problems panning. When I was able to pan, all the points that I had generated disappeared and turned into a blue line. I then exited and started over. I must have done this a dozen times before giving up.<br>
<br>
I then tried Lake Nawahunta which was small enough to fit on the screen when I zoomed in. I had simlar problems. Halfway around the lake, I would do something and all the points that I created turned into a blue line. I then would exit and start over and it would happen again.<br>
<br>
I have read the primer and watched the video tutorial on the editor to no avail.<br>

PS : I did not do sSring Pond because I don't know where it is. I know Nawahunta and Turkey Lake. There are probably about a half dozen lakes which I would like to get into the map. For now though, I am taking the night off.<br>
<br>
PPS: how does the information get from OSM to OSM Cycle? I am really more interested in the OSM Cycle maps.<br>

PPPS: I am sending this note to both you and <a href="mailto:newbies@openstreetmap.org" target="_blank">newbies@openstreetmap.org</a>. Hopefully, it works and in the future I will only replt to newbies.<br>
