Hi, playing with the new 'Routes' option and I'm getting an odd result.

Planning a journey from 'Pollok Country Park' to 'Lochwinnoch' gives a route of just under 16 miles. The result is similar whether the default 'Any' or the new 'Routes' option is chosen (the map appears to suggest that these locations sit NCN7/NCN75 as well as EV1):

Changing the start-point slightly, to 'Crossmyloof' for the 'Any' option results in an additional mile or so on road before hooking up with the same route as before. However, the 'Routes' option delivers a 235 mile circuitous route following the cycle network around the country:

It looks like the mapping is askew around the Pacific Drive / Govan Road junction – there’s some confusing turn restrictions and the route is marked as going along the road rather than the cycleway. I’ll take a look.
