Hi there,
Does anyone know where i might be able to find POI's which indicate cycle routes in the UK?
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

If you goto http://www.sustrans.org.uk/ there is a lot about cycle routes.
I haven't searched their site, but if you can get map information, why not create your own POI.

Not quite sure what you're looking for as POIs represent points rather than routes.

I think i should have worded it a little better.
If a POI was at the start of a known cycle route, the remainder of the route would be marked along the route which you would be following.
As suggested, i will start to mark the routes that i use in the future, and compile into a series of POI's which can be used and updated by others if they so wish.

I understand now but to make such a thing really useful you would need to create a POI for the main exit and entrance points along a route because cyclists don't necessarily want to start at the beginning (or the end) of a route.
I live on the Cheshire Cycleway which is a circular route of over a hundred miles and has no beginning nor end!
