Disappointed in the cycling directions. I tried it in Toronto and it gave me a route the ignored a road that had a dedicated bike lane and directed me to a busy narrow road where you have to share with the cars.

Is it the routing algorithm or just OpenStreetMap not knowing about this bike lane? Latter one you could easily fix and help others too.

Maybe the road with the bike lane is a secondary road and the narrow one without is a tertiary, which might be preferred by the bike routing. Can you link us to the road in question so we can look at it in detail?
