UrbanCyclr a Social Bicycle HeatMap

Bit more than a year ago, we created the project called Budapest Cycle Track. The idea is simple: there are many cyclers in Budapest but where do they ride exactly? Which are the busiest routes?

For each request you're shown what bike tracks/trails your route uses and can further explore them by showing them on map or going to the official trail route.
