Bicycle navigation and bike routes for waze!!! Please!!
Can you please add bicycle routes to the app and ways to avoid roads that go over a certain speed limit? The option to set your vehicle as a bicycle and find routes like that avoid high speed roads and roads that dont allow bikes conbined with all of the other great functions of the app will be fantastic...
But since you don't have the feature so many bicyclists won't get to navigate with your app and get the same benefits that car drivers have... I really need a navigator for bikers that shows the speed limits of the roads and if they have biking lanes before you make the trip to plan your navigation.
You should have the setting to make your vehile a bike and find bike routes, and to calculate how much time a trip will take you just have to ask the bicyclist to input their average biking speed and make your route estimates like that. Then through tracking their speed when you give them navigates your estimates can become even more accurate.
It shouldn't just be for driving navigation but also for people who have to bike places and still need to find the fastest routes avoiding cops and traffic and all the other benefits that drivers have and bikers don't because the app can't calculate routes for us unless you please make an update taking my suggestions!!

As a person living in the Netherlands (very bike-dense country) I would LOVE to see a bicycle option in Waze. I know I could use Google Maps but they are now forcing you to install their app, which I don't want on my phone (due to already having a slow phone and not wanting to install more apps to slow it down further), and I just love using Waze. The only option I have when cycling somewhere now is taking pictures of the google map with my phone and trying to figure out where to go whilst cycling, which is dangerous, annoying and inconvenient. I really hope Waze will include a bike feature in the near future so people can comment on road works on bicycle routes and maybe even have an option to warn users about frost in winter so users can take routes that have been de-iced (with sand/salt) etc.The options for a social navigation app such as Waze are endless! Also, cycling more is way healthier for us and our planet so is definitely the way to go in the future!!

This is an excellent idea. People like us can also edit maps to show best bike friendly routes.

Or use realtime data from apps like strava or mapmyride.

Dear Waze, plz do consider to add in other vehicle type at the "NAVIGATION>More Options" for greater convenience from different user type: Bicycle, Segway etc. With this plz do consider a better way for these user/vehicle to access the fastest inner roads (which of coz u gotta tweak to a 3D/4D visual so the user/vehicle would know) :Through buildings, corridors, ramp, plain field etc. Just my 2 cents on Marketing

Seria ideal tener la opcion de rutas para la bicicleta, creo que solo google maps y Bike citizens (que es inglesa) la tienen.

Seria ainda mais legal, se o waze tivesse as ciclo faixas cadastradas e redirecionasse os ciclistas para elas. Realmente a ideia deles aparecerem na nossa poderia evitar graves acidentes.

It would be nice if waze could extracted data from my Strava activity, so it was easy to register bicycle paths and trails

I would soooo love for Waze to add an option for cyclist, I use your app while commuting everyday but there are times where I ended up on motor ways with my bike, please please integrate this choice in your app. Keep up the good work.

I live in coastal Delaware and bicycle culture is bigger than ever. With so many new trails in the area it might be nice to have a version just for bicyclists or perhaps a way to identify as a bicyclist to all waze users?

Ando muito em estradas e sempre vejo ciclistas. Seria interessante se houvesse um waze alternativo para ciclistas. Seria bom para eles se orientarem e verem as anotações feitas por motoristas, assim como fazer recomendações ligadas ao trecho que estão. Mas o mais importante seria os carros poderem vê-los antecipadamente, prevenindo acidentes. Espero que isso ocorra, acho muito legal a convivência entre bicicletas e carros, com respeito de ambos os lados!

Actually it should be the group's tail that should alert the hazard.

I see bike riders getting hit by cars all the time. Why not add a feature for bicycle riders, they can log in to a life gps. That way when you have your waze app on it will announce there is a bike rider up ahead. Some roads are narrow, some roads sharp turns. You hug a turn? You may hit a human on a bike. Once you pass the bike rider it disappears. It's a safe way for bike riders to let people know they are around the sharp turn since they cannot ride on sidewalks.

Bicycles are all over the place, add a feature that can track it and not cause Bicycle riders like me lol to give lots of odd GPS data.

permettre au cycliste d'utilisé l'application avec une catégorie pour eux dans le choix du véhicule et aussi avoir un itinéraire adapté sans autoroute ou rocade si possible

Hi,
I don't actually drive, im a cyclist, and ride a mountain bike,
I have a holder for a 3 by 5 inch screen,

But it would be nice if it was also user friendly and compatible more supportive for cyclists to use it like a Garmin,
Thanks,
