Apple has expanded cycling directions in Apple Maps to San Diego, California and Portland, Oregon.
Although the company has yet to update its availability list, users in San Diego and Portland recently began receiving notifications that cycling directions were available.
Apple first introduced the new cycling directions in iOS 14. The dedicated cycling navigation feature offers information on bike lanes, paths, and data on inclines, stairs, or obstacles for cyclists.
In addition to San Diego and Portland, Apple supports cycling directions in London, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and mainland China.
Earlier in February, Apple also expanded its "Look Around" feature in Apple Maps to the San Diego and Portland metropolitan areas.

They need to have one for Washington DC. There are lot of bike trails here.
They also cover bike routes in Santa Cruz CA.
Slow rollout
How is this different from what Apple Maps has already been doing? I can get it to give me directions for cycling in NJ—it includes bike trails and allows me to pick to avoid hills and such. What is the extra functionality they are talking about?
