I assume those characteristics are mapped on the OSM-ways representing
the roads, not on the relation.
As far as I understand Peter's arguments, the fact that a bicycle
route is suitable for recreation, commuting, skilled MTB'ers and so
on, should be determined from the characteristics of the roads

AFAIK, the limit in Belgium depends on the card. You can within
certain limits set by the issuer, change your limit. Furthermore,
there is a daily and weekly limit as well (see e.g.

in Dutch).

In the meantime, the Whizzo closes and is replaced with a restaurant Eatwell.

Which situations can one theoretically have in a oneway street that
allows contraflow for bicycles and moped/mofas?
- no separate lanes (rather typical in Belgium)
- separate lanes, one lane on each side, lanes are 1-way
- separate lane only in contraflow direction, lane is oneway, (e.g.

I wonder whether you will ever get the right answers to this type of
questions on this mailing list.
Only if people on this list have used those tags themselves or
interacted with people using the "wrong" tags you might get an idea of
what is going on.

For me, a sport means competition, rankings, trophies. Is this the
case here? Otherwise, I think leisure is better.
A pitch a place specially designed for a certain sport. I think this
is not the case here. It's just an open space, which can also serve
other purposes.
I fear that a juggling spot i
Since OSM is used in commercial products, all exceptions you mention
for non-commercial use is not applicable.
The debate of many persons copying 1 fact from another database has
been discussed in the past, but OSM always tries to err on the safe

Is the second picture a valve ?
https://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-sluice-gate.htm This page calls it
sluice gate. I'm not familiar with the terminology, so perhaps experts
can enlighten me.
