Hope to see some stuff soon, since Portland is internationally famous for being a cycle-friendly city.

Mostly what you see in Portland will be derived from the US TIGER data and to be frank TIGER isn't that great quality. Getting local cycle route information into OSM, even if its for just a small area, would be great to see. As for routing, well expect that to come along sometime sooner rather than later. The project owns the data so as long as there are people out there to code these things then they will eventually happen. Beware though, mapping for OSM is very addictive, get the bug and you will be riding trails every spare moment you have ;-) Cheers Andy (blackadder) Great that you found the OpenStreetMap (OSM) project :-)
