[GraphHopper] Something wrong with bike routing?

[Peter Bryan]

Hi all,

The last few days (weeks?) I've noticed that graphhopper routes for
bicycles seem to have changed. Previously, graphhopper would take more bike
friendly roads like bicycle paths or quiet roads. Routes created today seem
to take bigger and busier roads, most suitable for cars. Is there something
wrong with bicycle routing? Of course, I prefer cycle paths over busy roads.

I've uploaded an example on GPS Visualizer with an old and a new route
between the same locations:

The old track (created in March) is much better than the route I created
today. I've tried this on GPSies and graphhopper.com/maps with the same
results. Routing between other locations have the same problem.

Thanks for looking into this!

Peter
