Meh. It's on my list of things to do, but to be honest I don't see it
as very important. There's lots of things that the cycle map doesn't
render at all, and for one I see distinguishing onroad/offroad cycle
routes as more important than the difference between tracktypes; ditto
for distinguishing bicycle=yes/no on footpaths and so on.
Cheers,
Andy
