I agree, this is great. A couple of quick observations. First, for some reason, it won't work in Internet Explorer 8 on my machine. Clicking on the link opens the webpage and OSM top and left sidebars, but displays no map or options. Opening the link in Firefox works fine.
Second, I asked for a bicycle route in my city (Tampa, Florida) and received one that uses a motorway (high-speed limited access highway) and none of the available streets that have cycleway=lane. Does this mean that we are now going to have to tag motorways explicitly with bicycle=no to keep the routing from using them? Except in a very few cases, mostly in rural areas, the US Interstate Highway system (motorways) is off limits to bicycles, and pretty much everyone knows that (so we haven't been tagging them with bicycle=no). I requested "bicycle" instead of "bicycle (routes)" and got a route that used mainly side streets and no motorways but, again, it seemed to ignore the cycleway=lane streets that I have mapped. Excellent work, but it will open up some things for us to look at (as good work usually does). Thank you, Nick!
