I did create a couple of relations to define walking routes (osm.org/browse/relation/34122) and cycling routes (osm.org/browse/relation/37300/)in my area. So far I've been unable to see the effect of that on the map (even on the Cycle Map). I must be doing something wrong or missing some info about the whole process.
Moreover, I was wondering if there's any API or utility to download these routes from OSM and somehow convert the result to GPX that could be transferred to my handheld GPS ?

I do believe there are external software that can take it into account. Personally, I'd use the "ref" tags on the segments themselves (cf. as is done with numbered highways) rather than an unwieldy relation (after all, IMHO the points is that there is a cycleway there, not that it is part of a specific network).
But then I'm working with bus routes only so far, and I don't do long-distance cycling, so I'm not clear what's the usefulness of having designated cycleways routed.

I think you have to add a tag "network = lcn" or "network = rcn" to mark it as local or regional cycle network. Like
osm.org/browse/relation/31481/
These will be rendered in the cycle map like here
osm.org/?lat=49.9736&lon=8.698&zoom=14&layers=00B0FTF

And you have to use the ref-tag to have it named on the map.

Maybe a good point to start reading is:
osm.wiki/index.php/Cycle_routes

that is tagging for rendering though. I don't think there is a walking map in Wallonia, A bit of Flanders is rendered though at www.openfietskaart.nl (select wandelkaart via the layer selector (blue plus))

What i mean is tagging for rendering, that it is not good to tag a walking route as cycle route. But it is good to tag those walking routes, then when someone launches a walking map, you already have the data collected. Moreover how more routes there are in the DB, the bigger the chance someone makes the effort to create it.

I was talking about the second route ("...and cycling routes...even on the Cycle Map...". But sometimes walking routes are cycle routes e.g. E1.
There was also some diskussion about network tagging.
