Then you can see how absurd it is go give the countries that inventend cycling routes and have the best and safest cycling infastructure of the world a restriction
If its really egible in the UK its just proof how bad the niantic team here is.
Maybe @elijustrying can confirm it

I think something really bad happened to someone at Niantic when they were visiting the Netherlands.

Its not only cycyling trails.
Can give more examples of objects that are in other countries accepted and here rejected.
It just giving players from certain countries disadvantages on purpose.
Made many topic about cycling trails.
here you have 2 diffrent signs one infastructure red colour whit city name how many km left, trail/route signs green. Whit route number and direction arrow.
Dont know what it is, but it make no sense
NCN markers are eligible they fit what is described in the criteria clarification. Each is a defined route- it is the route that is eligible the markers are simple anchors at distinct points for the route.
Although it’s the National Cycle Network, it is promoted by sustrans - sustainable transport. So they are designed for walkers and cyclists and try when possible to have them suitable for wheel chair users.
Each wayspot needs to be presented so that it can be considered acceptable.
Hope that helps.

Nothing different then the cycyling routes here.
Its Just giving players here a disadvantage that other countries dont have.
These seem line ball and personal preference choices. Seems more about agreeing with local reviewers than specific ambiguous guidelines.
Is it safe to stare at a screen when cycling? Is it safe to stare at a screen when walking with cyclists all around you? Careful play required.
We are at the stage where some bureaucrats will come up with new signs. These cycle / walk symbols on signs will be joined by a symbol of mobile phone either ticked or crossed.
Once in voting your knowledge of how other voters in your voting pool will react is the key. Easy to say previous acceptances don’t count but they do in practice.
I like to have my phone in a handlebar mount when biking. Im not staring at it constantly but I do like to play while biking. Its a major plus point for me of bike over car that I can look at my phone from time to time
I bike on roads as well as trails, and can definitely say I prefer dodging cars to dealing with pedestrians looking at phones its not the cyclists to be worried about. We have to slow down to pass people and give them lots of space

This topic is already months going.
If you follow the guidlines they should al be legit.
And niantic can’t give a logic awnser, especially not when they are legit in the UK and other countries.
Just strange self made reason opinion, to give players here a disadvantage whitout explanation.
Make no sense if i need to accept cycyling network in the uk but in the netherlands i have to reject them? While playing wayfarer
I don’t want to pour salt on your wound but they also let us have postboxes and pubs too
