This sounds just like a different ruleset for osmarender, which will
soon, throught tiles at home support different rendering styles, or layers
if you will[1]. the first layer different from the "normal" osmarender
layer is planned to be a maplint[2] layer, but such a "Bike and Hike"
layer would be as easy as writing an osmarender ruleset for it when the
layering support has been introduced into tiles at home.
