It was a pleasant evening last night, so I went out to attempt to map some of the London Cycle Network.

It doesn't help that I live in Barnet. London Borough of Barnet have quietly been sitting on a budget provided by Transport for London for cycle facilities and doing almost nothing. As such, what cycle routes that exist in the borough have either had their signs removed, or lane markings removed, or lane markings worn out over time, and fingerposts have been rotated.

To make things worse, the official maps available from Transport for London direct cyclists down many footpaths that are clearly signposted "no cycling", and any route numbers or other designations appear to have been changing, undocumented, unsignposted, or just plain wrong over time.

So here's a question to anyone else mapping the London Cycle Network : have you cross-checked the numbers on the signposts with the 'official' post-2007 maps?
