Hide around-the-bay routes by default #31

Open graue opened 2 years ago

Extremely long bike-only routes like this should be available for those who really want them, but behind an option turned off by default, because this is not practical for transportation planning and makes BikeHopper less useful for most.

The heuristic could be: if bike-only route is over 3 or 4 times the length of the bike+transit route, don't show it.

Related (feel free to split into a different issue): It would be good to have multiple alternative routes to choose from, not just 1 route per number of transit legs (internally -1, 0, 1... transfers). In this case it might give me Folsom St or Market St to choose from to bike to the 25.
