Absolutely great!

The cycle map is my favorite OSM map at the moment and I'm actively tagging 
our regional cycle network now - I don't think I would do that consequently 
if there wasn't a map that renders it properly. :-)

What do you think about rendering amenity:shelter on the highest zoom 
level(z13)? I thinnkthis could be useful on a cycle map and there are already 
many of these features in OSM.

Sadly, it seems to be frozen in a proposal state forever and is therefore not 
rendered on the two main maps yet.
