You have all missed the point. Did any of you read the article?
There is currently a 'drive there' option. Where's the option for bikes? Any option for bikes is good. Just the word BIKES on google maps might open someone's mind to the possibility of cycling somewhere.
"most direct route, or the most bicycle-friendly (safest) route" doesn't equal BIKE LANE.
Where do other cycle specific mapping companies get their data from? Companies that collect it and USERS. Automatically link Bikely.com routes.
Users rate them and as more routes are rated they climb the ladder to become the 'best' route selected by cyclists between A and B.
