Plus there are areas in the US that are already using the ncn/rcn/lcn
convention so cyclemap renders things properly.  This breaks down pretty
nicely for cycleways that front US and Interstates as well as the 2
designated NCNs in the US (as ncn), state owned routes as rcn and city
and county maintained routes as LCN (such as the 40 Mile Loop and
Portland/Salem/Eugene's bicycle boulevards and city greenways).
