OK, I've updated the tagging of all the National Byway relations
listed on the wiki to network=rcn, and also updated the wiki to
reflect the changes. I suppose I ought to go out and fill in
some of the local gaps now!
Thumbs up to all of that. :)

Personally I think that'd be a great improvement.

Lately I've been doing some tagging of the South-West region of the
National Byway, and I'm finding it quite disappointing that it is not
rendered on the cycle map.
I've rummaged around in the history of this issue and located what I
think are the most relevant thread starters:
I recently cycled following Byway signs to the Cambridgeshire border
near Gamlingay (where the signs disappeared ..) I later extended the
relation for that part of the Byway which I found by searching the Wiki.
The Sustrans network is often better mapped in OSM than on the Sustrans
website.
