Naming cycle routes

Postet gant jonnymaserati da 22 June 2009 e English.

I wonder if it's possible to name cycling routes or give an indication on the cycle map render of the name of a route?

The cycle routes I've uploaded for Syria have well known names amongst the MTB community here and it would be nice to reflect these on the maps...

You talk about this map:
osm.org/?lat=50.0756&lon=8.53351&zoom=15&layers=00B0FTF
?
Use the ref-tag.

nice map! we've got a long way to go in syria before they start looking as good as these!

that's exactly what i meant. i'm trying to use the lcn_ref but i don't get the sub keys come up like they do in this map? will wait and see how it looks when the render is updated...

lcn_ref is old style, when no relations where used.
Better use relations and ref and network=lcn or lcn=yes.

Also here is still a lot to do :-)
