Mapped as discrete cycleway here when I think it's just a shoulder

A couple of sources (e.g. http://www.ridgeroute.com/news.php) suggest that the Ridge Route is open to walkers and cyclists, though not to cars - "You are allowed to walk, hike, or bicycle in, just no motorized vehicles". Is this the case? If so, I guess it would be good to add "bicycle=yes" etc. to amend the current "access=no".

Didn't think the Thames Path here was a public bridleway - needs checking.

NCN numbering is a bit screwed up along on this whole length - the ncn_ref tags say one thing, the relations say another.

I _think_ it's NCN 66 along the towpath from Leeds to Shipley, which then heads south; NCN 696 continues along the towpath; and NCN 69 takes over at Keighley after arriving from the south (on an incomplete section). But it really needs survey and everything moving into route relations.

River meander has been cut off since original NHD data - this is quite wrong

Eurovelo route now goes this way and not via D932a

Lots of roads here tagged highway=service when they're unpaved and would be much better as highway=track (or, for a few wider ones, highway=unclassified, surface=unpaved).

New cycleway around here, including rerouted NCN 68

This is confusingly mapped with separate trunk_link ways - given that there's no physical divider, it should be mapped as a single way but with lanes tagging (ideally by someone who, unlike me, understands lanes tagging)

Check bike parking capacity here - OCC survey says there are 40 spaces but OSM has 24 at present.
