That is what I am saying. YOu got a group of guys doing a club ride every sunday morning all using Strava, and the route will show high useage. A road that is empty on Sunday AM, may not be useful for most people.
I know the clubs and the individual riders around me, and find the maps very accurate. But the routes they ride early morning on the weekends may not be useful for others. It makes a difference if you are in a back of a dozen bikers, or going solo too.
