[Tagging] mesh bicycle network

[Peter Elderson]

I would say it is a system of preferential cycleroutes to different
destinations. It resembles the system of preferential truck routes in
Amsterdam.

It is a system, and it's visible on the ground. The arrow signs create a
route to the next signpost in the chosen direction. If there is agreement
that this actually is something worth mapping, I don't see a problem there.

The network:type=* tag creates the option to add network-systems for all
transport modes. If a clear value for this network:type can be agreed upon,
I see no problem there either.

That's my own opinion. Since the Dutch route mappers came up with the
network:type tag to explicitly map network systems (i.c. node_network), and
since we have discussed how to tag a preference route system for trucks in
Amsterdam last year, I will ask on the Dutch OSM forum how they feel about
this idea.
