Well, when it comes at me, something that I map as "path" cannot necessarily be cyclable. I mapped all my runs around and some of them have been in some......challenging paths, definitely not doable (even downhill) with a bike (even a moutain bike, unless you're in the world top 10 of bikers...). THese ones are really fun to run on....assuming you like challenging running..:-) But, certainly much much much more paths and tracks are not yet mapped, mostly because....there are a lot of them, particularly in the moutain parts and in forests. That's why I currently mostly use Swiss Topo maps, which I print (yay paperwaste) and hold in my hand while running. They are *very* reliable and, for instance, when a path is a dead-end on them, it *really* is a dead end (by ignoring that, I ended up a few times crossing bushes, rivers, meeting several gentle swiss cows). map.geo.admin.ch is your friend _______________________________________________ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss
