AFAIK There are no official ITC trails for bicycles.
KKL marked some trails specifically for bicycles (bicycle in a circle and an arrow in the advancing direction, all black).
Other trails even if builed for bicycles are officially (as I understand it) hiking trails (Haruvit, Masua-Agur-Masua).
bicycle=yes is a legal declaration that bicycles are permitted.
This is not true on hiking trails in all RTG areas (there’s currently a declaration of a pilot alowing bicycles in 5 trails) where bicycles are only permitted on vehicles roads.
This is true or at least not enforced in all other areas.
Anyway I propose to default for hiking and bicycle=yes in all but RTG areas.
Yes, we are switching to stripes.
I’ve created shield markings and uploaded them to the wiki with stripes.
I’ll try and change all *_bar to *_stripe this week.
You (and anyone else) can help. The list is quite complete.
Just take a relation and edit its osmc:symbol tag.
I’m not sure I like batch-editing. It can be hazardeous.
We have a bad experience with it.
At one point we wanted to translate all names from the GeonetNameServer to Hebrew, and we ended up with 3 nodes instead of one.
We still have some lurking around…
I already changed everything to *_stripe.
I also contacted Lonvia, to have the map support our 3-colors markings.
All LCN’s but the Ness Tziona route (which I’m not familiar with) are also hiking trails.
What is the default? (I’ve previously proposed hiking with bicycle=yes)
And BTW… horses…
K20 was builed with horses and not bikes in mind.
I did not check yet but it should be taged accordingly.
