Q7. I saw that willcycle is looking to create tourist biking routes in cities. This might be a great project for those who want to contribute or even those who want to propose a route through their spot. Here’s a link to his post. https://www.willcycle.com/2025/03/25/citycycle/
Do you have a go-to source for cycle routes, as a tourist?

@ascentale @PamelaSchure @bikenite A7. My city's free cycle loan programme, operated by libraries, has downloadable suggested routes in GPX format on the libraries' websites, and the staff encourages the use of Organic Maps.
The routes themselves were put together by various bicycle user groups. Short loops to tourism points of interest, or pretty rides along pleasant routes with plenty of facilities, parks and dining options.
The state government runs a good city-wide cycle route finder. Easily the best router I've used. OSM-based alternatives come second, thanks to a dedicated handful of people making apps route well by fixing the OSM basemap. Google Maps is blah, routing along busy roads for the most part.
