GR routes ?

I'm currently working on a relation (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/33768) for the GR 126 (Brussels-Semois at http://www.grsentiers.org/cgi-bin/topog/gr126.php). I could certainly use some help from OSM volunteers at the South of Namur as it's going to be too far from my area.

Why bother creating relations for Routes ?

I did create a couple of relations to define walking routes (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/34122) and cycling routes (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/37300/)in my area. So far I've been unable to see the effect of that on the map (even on the Cycle Map). I must be doing something wrong or missing some info about the whole process.

Moreover, I was wondering if there's any API or utility to download these routes from OSM and somehow convert the result to GPX that could be transferred to my handheld GPS ?

Relations going away ?

I started re-defining a relation (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/37300/) to map a cycle route found on a web site. I already did that relation two days ago (using podlatch as i'm too lazy to teach myself how to use JOSM). Today I looked back and the relation was still there but had no member ways |@#¼ anymore.
Is this a Podlatch bug or something ?

Lierneux & Vielsalm

Started to map the village of Ottré, Luxembourg, Belgium and surroundings after a small visit there. More to come... this was pretty much a blank area on OSM so far.

Biker in Villers-la-Ville

Hi. Discovered OSM recently and immediately started to map my area, focusing on all the cycleways i'm using to ride on my mountainbike . Any comments welcome. What's the best way to tag good paths/tracks that can be used when mountainbiking though not exclusively reserved for that usage?

Coordinates:
50.57757; 4.53229
