[Talk-GB] help with reverting changeset (all cycleways in a particular area deleted)

[Robert Skedgell]

The same user added an entirely spurious bicycle=no to a bus gate in 
Woodham Ferrers. This made cycle routers take the scenic route and 
turned 300m of shared footway along Ferrers Road into a dead end. There 
was no source for the "corrections" in this edit. How odd that cycle 
infra seems to be the common feature in their problematic edits...
