[Tagging] How to tag recreational route with multiple route types?

[Bert -Araali- Van Opstal]

One could make a parent relation, containing all the common tags and 
elements. Child relations that are part of the parent for the tags 
and/or elements that are different, and include those child relations in 
the parent relation.

I haven't used it on route relations but on many other relation types 
this works just fine, keeps the common members consistent.

Greetngs,
