[OSM-talk-be] Bicycle highways

[Marc Gemis]

The Fiets-o-Strade between Antwerpen en Mechelen is a relation [1]. I
don't know who created it.
As far as I remember there are "maps" along the route. I think the
blue sign [2] is indicating it.
For the rest you will only see destination signs for cyclist [3]
