Route creation is difficult, especially for cyclists. We were planning on using Strava data, even though we have a massive amount of routing knowledge and data, purely because their data is cycling specific.

I guess I'm not quite a typical cyclist though - I often choose to bash down busy-as-fuck A roads whereas most people seem to prefer the lanes. Now, if I could get "almost" direct routes but using the lanes I'd probably jump at it. The Garmin routing just doesn't seem to cut it. I guess I could try slamming in a self-made OSM map that doesn't have cycle paths and that might work a bit better for me.

Yeah, that's not my idea of "minimize distance". It basically makes it pointless.
