The preferred styling is OpenStreetMap. One word, no sss.
Part of what loeg is saying is that the dedicated bike infrastructure they have is not especially bike friendly. To the extent people are following OpenStreetMap's "on the ground" rule, it will be hard to extract information about that from OSM.
Here the main highways are US Bike Routes, which means they get highlighted on the Mapzen style, with the exception of someone doing a through trip (where they are the logical route), they are the absolute worst places to cycle in town.
