Hi Michael,

I'm sure the other responses will have described sufficiently what is
meant by a "pub_crawl", but it's also worth mentioning that they are
purely subjective. There's no way to find out an objective route when
out mapping - they aren't signed or anything - so I would say it's
debatable whether they are worth worrying about.

In fact, in this week's database there is precisely 1 way with a
route=pub_crawl tag (there may be relations, admittedly, but still). I
think it was originally intended simply as an illustration of the
route tag, and if anything I would suggest you remove it from Map
Features instead of translating it.

Cheers,
Andy
