Hi

On the subject of cycling the December/January CTC Cycle magazine doesn't have a very favourable write up for the Garmin Edge Touring Plus which comes with the "Open Street Map" project data.  It makes the comment that OSM "like Wikipedia, is neither complete nor entirely accurate!".  It also seems the routing software was directing the user along "muddy bridleways and grotty gravel paths!" when then set it to avoid "narrow trails" and also "unpaved roads".  It is a bit disappointing as previous articles that have mentioned OSM have been quite supportive.

Regards

Dudley
